We have a legacy application that runs fine on our cluster using Intel MPI. We
ported it to OpenMPI so that we could use BLCR and it runs fine but
checkpointing is not working properly:
1. when we checkpoint with more than 1 core, it executes with the error:
mpirun noticed that process rank 1 with PID 8260 on node tscco28017
exited on signal 4 (Illegal instruction).
2. checkpointing with 1 core works
3. we have a simple test program that exercises MPI with multiple cores and it
checkpoints fine on multiple cores
Can you suggest how to debug this problem?
Some additional information:
1. I execute the program like this: mpirun -am ft-enable-cr -n 2 -machinefile
machines program inputfile
2. when I checkpoint it, I see that the checkpoint directories are created but
the file "global_snapshot_meta.data" is not complete, there is no
restart-appfile, the "snapshot_meta.data" files are not complete, and there are
no dump files for the individual processes.
3. the command "ompi-checkpoint" doesn't return; I have to control-C to kill it
after checkpointing.
4. We are using Open MPI 1.4.4 with BLCR 0.8.4
5. I have attached "ompi_info.txt"
Thanks

Ready
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_paffinity_alone" (current value: "0",
data source: default value, synonym of: opal_paffinity_alone)
If nonzero, assume that this job is the only (set of)
process(es) running on each node and bind processes to processors, starting
with processor ID 0
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_param_check" (current value: "1", data
source: default value)
Whether you want MPI API parameters checked at
run-time or not. Possible values are 0 (no checking) and 1 (perform checking
at run-time)

data source: default value)
Whether to actually free MPI objects when their
handles are freed
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_mpi_alloc_mem_leaks" (current
value: "0", data source: default value)
If >0, MPI_FINALIZE will show up to this many
instances of memory allocated by MPI_ALLOC_MEM that was not freed by
MPI_FREE_MEM
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_mca_params" (current value:
<none>, data source: default value)
Whether to show all MCA parameter values during

combination of them
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_mca_params_file" (current value:
<none>, data source: default value)

reproducability of MPI jobs)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_keep_peer_hostnames" (current value:
"1", data source: default value)
If nonzero, save the string hostnames of all MPI peer
processes (mostly for error / debugging output messages). This can add quite a
bit of memory usage to each MPI process.

source: default value)
If nonzero, print out an identifying message when
MPI_ABORT is invoked (hostname, PID of the process that called MPI_ABORT) and

Whether to use the "leave pinned" protocol or not.
Enabling this setting can help bandwidth performance when repeatedly sending
and receiving large messages with the same buffers over RDMA-based networks (0
= do not use "leave pinned" protocol, 1 = use "leave pinned" protocol, -1 =
allow network to choose at runtime).

Whether to use the "leave pinned pipeline" protocol
or not.
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_warn_on_fork" (current value: "1",
data source: default value)
If nonzero, issue a warning if program forks under
conditions that could cause system errors
MCA mpi: information "mpi_have_sparse_group_storage" (value:
"0", data source: default value)

of data in MPI groups in "sparse" formats (good for extremely large process
count MPI jobs that create many communicators/groups)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_use_sparse_group_storage" (current
value: "0", data source: default value)
Whether to use "sparse" storage formats for MPI
groups (only relevant if mpi_have_sparse_group_storage is 1)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_base_help_aggregate" (current value:
"1", data source: default value)
If orte_base_help_aggregate is true, duplicate help
messages will be aggregated rather than displayed individually. This can be
helpful for parallel jobs that experience multiple identical failures; rather
than print out the same help/failure message N times, display it once with a
count of how many processes sent the same message.
MCA orte: parameter "orte_tmpdir_base" (current value: <none>,
data source: default value)
Base of the session directory tree
MCA orte: parameter "orte_no_session_dirs" (current value:
<none>, data source: default value)
Prohibited locations for session directories
(multiple locations separated by ',', default=NULL)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_debug" (current value: "0", data
source: default value)
Top-level ORTE debug switch (default verbosity: 1)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_debug_verbose" (current value: "-1",
data source: default value)
Verbosity level for ORTE debug messages (default: 1)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_debug_daemons" (current value: "0",
data source: default value)
Whether to debug the ORTE daemons or not
MCA orte: parameter "orte_debug_daemons_file" (current value:
"0", data source: default value)
Whether want stdout/stderr of daemons to go to a file
or not
MCA orte: parameter "orte_leave_session_attached" (current
value: "0", data source: default value)
Whether applications and/or daemons should leave
their sessions attached so that any output can be received - this allows X
forwarding without all the attendant debugging output
MCA orte: parameter "orte_do_not_launch" (current value: "0",
data source: default value)
Perform all necessary operations to prepare to launch
the application, but do not actually launch it
MCA orte: parameter "orte_daemon_spin" (current value: "0",
data source: default value)
Have any orteds spin until we can connect a debugger
to them
MCA orte: parameter "orte_daemon_fail" (current value: "-1",
data source: default value)
Have the specified orted fail after init for
debugging purposes
MCA orte: parameter "orte_daemon_fail_delay" (current value:
"0", data source: default value)
Have the specified orted fail after specified number
of seconds (default: 0 => no delay)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_heartbeat_rate" (current value: "0",
data source: default value)
Seconds between checks for daemon state-of-health
(default: 0 => do not check)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_startup_timeout" (current value: "0",
data source: default value)

"totalview @mpirun@ -a @mpirun_args@ : ddt -n @np@ -start @executable@
@executable_argv@ @single_app@ : fxp @mpirun@ -a @mpirun_args@", data source:

operation (default: 1sec)
MCA orte: parameter "orte_timeout_step" (current value: "1000",
data source: default value)
Time to wait [in usecs/proc] before aborting an ORTE
operation (default: 1000 usec/proc)
