That option is only available on the trunk at the moment. I filed a ticket to move the functionality to the 1.5 branch: https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/2890
The work around would be to take the appfile generated from "ompi-restart --apponly ompi_snapshot...", and then run mpirun with the options followed by the generated appfile. shell$ mpirun -np 10 -npernode 2 appfile_from_ompi_restart Not as pretty, but it should work. -- Josh On Tue, Oct 18, 2011 at 11:28 AM, Faisal Shahzad <itsfa...@hotmail.com> wrote: > I am using openmpi v1.5.3 > regards, > Faisal > >> Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2011 11:17:33 -0400 >> From: jjhur...@open-mpi.org >> To: us...@open-mpi.org >> Subject: Re: [OMPI users] Question regarding mpirun options with >> ompi-restart >> >> That command line option may be only available on the trunk.
