Hi Nathan, I had earlier tried to compile OpenMPI with just PGI compilers (without cray wrapper), but with that my code was not able to run on the compute nodes of the cray cluster (it just ran on the MOM node). Therefore I have been trying to compiler OpenMPI with the cray wrappers.
I will checkout the cray-xe6 version, and try to follow the instructions. Thanks! Abhinav.
