I have setup a small cluster with 3 nodes, named A, B and C respectively.
I tested the ring_c.c program in the examples. For debugging purpose,
I have added some print statements as follows in the original ring_c.c
>> 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);
I lauched my mpi program as follows:
$mpirun -np 3 --hostfile myhostfile ./ring
the content in myhost file is:
=========
hostA slots=1
hostB slots=1
hostC slots=1
============
I got the follow output:
==========================
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 assumed there is communication problem between B and C, so I launched the
program with 2 processes on B and C.
the output is as follows:
===============
Process 0 sending 10 to 1, tag 201 (2 processes in ring)
Process 0 sent to 1
rank 1, message 10,start===========
rank 1, message 10,end-------------
Process 0 decremented value: 9
rank 0, message 9,start===========
===============
Again, in the second round of pass, B failed to send message to C.
I checked firewall config using chkconfig --list iptables on all the nodes.
none of them are set as "on".
Attached is all the information needed, my openmpi version is 1.6.1.
thanks for your help.
