Hi Shiqing,


No problems executing notepad.exe remotely - process with id 2416 created on
remote node.

>From 10.244.166.37

C:\Users\greenbutton>wmic /node:10.243.1.134 process call create notepad.exe

};



No problems running the MPI command on notepad.exe

mpirun noticed that the job aborted, but has no info as to the process

that caused that situation.

(Works; blocked until notepad.exe killed on both nodes)



Running my command MPIHello still does not work across nodes; I believe
there is a MPI communication problem between the processes, ie.
MPI_Send/Recv. It worked with 2 processes but not 4. How do I go about
resolving that? Is there a problem with the build settings of my executable?

Please assist.

EC2 windows instances



Hi Peter,

The Open MPI potentially uses WMI to launch remote processes, so the WMI has
to be configured correctly. There are two links talking about how to set it
up in README.WINDOWS file:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa393266(VS.85).aspx
http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/578

For testing whether it works or not, you can use following command:
wmic /node:remote_node_ip process call create notepad.exe

then log onto the other Windows, check in the task manager if the
notepad.exe process is created (don't forget to delete it afterwards). 

If that works, this command will also work:
mpirun -np 2 -host host1 host2 notepad.exe

Please try to run the above two test commands, if they all works you
application should also work. Just let me know if you have any question or
trouble with that.

I am a new comer to Open MPI. 



I have spent the last day trying to diagnose why a "hello world" MPI
application compiled with OpenMPI v1.6.1 (64 bit) hangs when run on two EC2
Windows instances. I note they are running on different subnets so I'm using
the mca btl_tcp_if_include 10.0.0.0/8 parameter. My two hosts are
10.242.73.81,10.116.114.238. I've placed the executable in the same path on
both machines. 



Diagnostic info requested is attached along with sample application source. 



When I run two processes on one instance - the command succeeds: 

C:\mpi\exe>mpiexec -n 2 -host 10.242.73.81 --mca btl_tcp_if_include
10.0.0.0/8 MPIHello.exe 

WE have 2 processors 

Hello 1 Processor 1 at node AMAZONA-BMCKVD6 reporting for duty 



When I run across two hosts, the executable is launched on both instances
but the process hangs: 



C:\mpi\exe>mpiexec -n 4 -host 10.242.73.81,10.116.114.238 --mca
btl_tcp_if_include 10.0.0.0/8 MPIHello.exe

Re-running with debug:

I'd appreciate any guidance to getting this example to run on two instances
on disparate subnets on Windows Server 2008 R2. 



Thanks in advance for your help.

Peter
