OK! I catch the meaning of the "--mca btl_openib_cpc_include rdmacm"
parameter.
Howerver, as I just said, we are doing, in the meanwhile, several IMB
tests on openmpi
1.2.8 and on this (our) version either the RDMA CM support is not
implemented or has
not been included in the compilation phase

Sorry for the late reply.
Other users have seen something similar but we have never been able
to reproduce it. Is this only when using IB? If you use "mpirun --
mca btl_openib_cpc_if_include rdmacm", does the problem go away?

I've seen the same thing when I build openmpi 1.4.3 with Intel 12,
but only when I have -O2 or -O3 in CFLAGS. If I drop it down to -O1
then the collectives hangs go away. I don't know what, if anything,
the higher optimization buys you when compiling openmpi, so I'm not
sure if that's an acceptable workaround or not.
My system is similar to yours - Intel X5570 with QDR Mellanox IB
running RHEL 5, Slurm, and these openmpi btls: openib,sm,self. I'm
using IMB 3.2.2 with a single iteration of Barrier to reproduce the
hang, and it happens 100% of the time for me when I invoke it like
this:
# salloc -N 9 orterun -n 65 ./IMB-MPI1 -npmin 64 -iter 1 barrier
The hang happens on the first Barrier (64 ranks) and each of the
participating ranks have this backtrace:
__poll (...)
poll_dispatch () from [instdir]/lib/libopen-pal.so.0
opal_event_loop () from [instdir]/lib/libopen-pal.so.0
opal_progress () from [instdir]/lib/libopen-pal.so.0
ompi_request_default_wait_all () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
ompi_coll_tuned_sendrecv_actual () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
ompi_coll_tuned_barrier_intra_recursivedoubling () from [instdir]/
lib/libmpi.so.0

libmpi.so.0
PMPI_Barrier () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
IMB_barrier ()
IMB_init_buffers_iter ()
main ()
The one non-participating rank has this backtrace:
__poll (...)
poll_dispatch () from [instdir]/lib/libopen-pal.so.0
opal_event_loop () from [instdir]/lib/libopen-pal.so.0
opal_progress () from [instdir]/lib/libopen-pal.so.0
ompi_request_default_wait_all () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
ompi_coll_tuned_sendrecv_actual () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
ompi_coll_tuned_barrier_intra_bruck () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
ompi_coll_tuned_barrier_intra_dec_fixed () from [instdir]/lib/
libmpi.so.0
PMPI_Barrier () from [instdir]/lib/libmpi.so.0
main ()
If I use more nodes I can get it to hang with 1ppn, so that seems
to rule out the sm btl (or interactions with it) as a culprit at
least.
I can't reproduce this with openmpi 1.5.3, interestingly.

Dear all,
we succeed in building several version of openmpi from 1.2.8 to
1.4.3
with Intel composer XE 2011 (aka 12.0).
However we found a threshold in the number of cores (depending
from the
application: IMB, xhpl or user applications
and form the number of required cores) above which the application
hangs
(sort of deadlocks).
The building of openmpi with 'gcc' and 'pgi' does not show the
same limits.
There are any known incompatibilities of openmpi with this version
of
intel compiilers?
The characteristics of our computational infrastructure are:
Intel processors E7330, E5345, E5530 e E5620
CentOS 5.3, CentOS 5.5.
Intel composer XE 2011
gcc 4.1.2
pgi 10.2-1
