Did you really mean "threads" there?
Open MPI is process-parallel, meaning that calling COMM_SIZE on a communicator
will return the number of *processes* in that communicator, not threads.
See the man page for mpirun(1) for how to launch multiple processes in a single
MPI job. Quick example:
mpirun --hostfile your_host_file -np 8 your_mpi_program
where:
your_host_file: a file listing the host names to launch on
8: number of copies of your_mpi_program to launch
your_mpi_program: your compiled executable MPI application
