Hi,

The error message means that Open MPI couldn't allocate any compute node. It might 
because the headnode wasn't discovered. You could try with option "-mca 
orte_headnode_name HEADNODE_NAME" in the mpirun command line (mpirun --help will 
show how to use it) .

And Jeff is also right, special care should be taken for the executable paths, 
and it's better to use UNC path.

To clarify the path issue, if you just copy the OMPI dir to another computer, there might 
also be another problem that OMPI couldn't load the registry entries, as the registry 
entries were set during the installation phase on the specific computer. In 1.5.3, a 
overall env "OPENMPI_HOME" will do the work.

Regards,
Shiqing

Did you copy OMPI to the same directory tree that you built it?

OMPI hard-codes some directory names when it builds, and it expects to find 
that directory structure when it runs.  If you build OMPI with a --prefix of 
/foo, but then move it to /bar, various things may not work (like finding help 
messages, etc.) unless you set the OMPI/OPAL environment variables that tell 
OMPI where the files are actually located.
