Hallo, Thank you for this. When I start the mpi test with the option "--mca btl openib,sm,self" I can start it on on node. But I can't start it on two nodes. The Error then is:
schmitt$ /amd/software/openmpi-1.6.5/cltest/bin/mpirun -n 2 -H cluster1,cluster2 /worklocal/schmitt/imb/3.2.4/src/IMB-MPI1 SENDRECV -------------------------------------------------------------------------- At least one pair of MPI processes are unable to reach each other for MPI communications. This means that no Open MPI device has indicated that it can be used to communicate between these processes. This is an error; Open MPI requires that all MPI processes be able to reach each other. This error can sometimes be the result of forgetting to specify the "self" BTL. Process 1 ([[49963,1],0]) is on host: cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de Process 2 ([[49963,1],1]) is on host: cluster2 BTLs attempted: self sm Your MPI job is now going to abort; sorry. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- MPI_INIT has failed because at least one MPI process is unreachable from another. This *usually* means that an underlying communication plugin -- such as a BTL or an MTL -- has either not loaded or not allowed itself to be used. Your MPI job will now abort. You may wish to try to narrow down the problem; * Check the output of ompi_info to see which BTL/MTL plugins are available. * Run your application with MPI_THREAD_SINGLE. * Set the MCA parameter btl_base_verbose to 100 (or mtl_base_verbose, if using MTL-based communications) to see exactly which communication plugins were considered and/or discarded. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29116] *** An error occurred in MPI_Init [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29116] *** on a NULL communicator [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29116] *** Unknown error [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29116] *** MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL: your MPI job will now abort -------------------------------------------------------------------------- An MPI process is aborting at a time when it cannot guarantee that all of its peer processes in the job will be killed properly. You should double check that everything has shut down cleanly. Reason: Before MPI_INIT completed Local host: cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de PID: 29116 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- mpirun has exited due to process rank 1 with PID 5194 on node cluster2 exiting improperly. There are two reasons this could occur: 1. this process did not call "init" before exiting, but others in the job did. This can cause a job to hang indefinitely while it waits for all processes to call "init". By rule, if one process calls "init", then ALL processes must call "init" prior to termination. 2. this process called "init", but exited without calling "finalize". By rule, all processes that call "init" MUST call "finalize" prior to exiting or it will be considered an "abnormal termination" This may have caused other processes in the application to be terminated by signals sent by mpirun (as reported here). -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29113] 1 more process has sent help message help-mca-bml-r2.txt / unreachable proc [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29113] Set MCA parameter "orte_base_help_aggregate" to 0 to see all help / error messages [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29113] 1 more process has sent help message help-mpi-runtime / mpi_init:startup:pml-add-procs-fail [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29113] 1 more process has sent help message help-mpi-errors.txt / mpi_errors_are_fatal unknown handle [cluster1.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de:29113] 1 more process has sent help message help-mpi-runtime.txt / ompi mpi abort:cannot guarantee all killed It seems like the mpi doesn’t know how to communicate between the nodes. Any idea?
