if I tried the ring program, the first round of pass is fine, but the second 
round is blocked at some node.
here is the message printed out


Process 0 sending 10 to 1, tag 201 (3 processes in ring)
Process 0 sent to 1
rank 1, message 10,start===========
rank 1, message 10,end-------------
rank 2, message 10,start===========
Process 0 decremented value: 9
rank 0, message 9,start===========
rank 0, message 9,end-------------
rank 2, message 10,end-------------
rank 1, message 9,start===========


I have added some printf statements in the ring_c.c as follows:
 60         printf("rank %d, message %d,start===========\n", rank, message);
 61         MPI_Send(&message, 1, MPI_INT, next, tag, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
 62         printf("rank %d, message %d,end-------------\n", rank, message);

Hi Jody,
thanks for your suggestion and you are right. if I use the ring example, the 
same happened.
I have put a printf statement, it seems that all the three processed have 
reached the line 
calling "PMPI_Allreduce", any further suggestion?


Thanks.
Richard

Hi Richard

When a collective call hangs, this usually means that one (or more)
processes did not reach this command.
Are you sure that all processes reach the allreduce statement?

If something like this happens to me, i insert print statements just
before the MPI-call so i can see which processes made
it to this point and which ones did not.

Hope this helps a bit
  Jody
