Yes, it should work without problem to specify -np. As it didn't hit me in my tests (normally I don't specify -np), I would really be interested in the underlying cause. Especially as the example in Open MPI's FAQ lists -np to start with GirdEngine integration, it should have hit other users too. -- Reuti > Regards, > Eloi > > > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On > Behalf Of Ralph Castain > Sent: mardi 10 avril 2012 16:43 > To: Open MPI Users > Subject: Re: [OMPI users] sge tight intregration leads to bad allocation > > Could well be a bug in OMPI - I can take a look, though it may be awhile > before I get to it.
