Here is what I have with openmpi.
mpiexec --bind-to-core  --mca plm_base_strip_prefix_from_node_names 0 -np 32 
./cpi
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are not enough slots available in the system to satisfy the 32 slots
that were requested by the application:
  ./cpi

Either request fewer slots for your application, or make more slots available
for use.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [OMPI users] (OpenMPI for Cray XE6 ) How to set mca 
parameters through aprun?

My guess is that you aren't doing the allocation correctly - since you are 
using qsub, can I assume you have Moab as your scheduler?

aprun should be forwarding the envars - do you see them if you just run "aprun 
-n 1 printenv"?

Hi,

I installed OpenMPI on our small XE6 using the configure options under /contrib 
directory.  It appears it is working fine, but it ignores MCA parameters (set 
in env var).  So I switched to mpirun (in OpenMPI) and it can handle MCA 
parameters somehow.  However,  mpirun fails to allocate process by cores.  For 
example, I allocated 32 cores (on 2 nodes) by "qsub –lmppwidth=32 
–lmppnppn=16", mpirun recognizes it as 2 slots.    Is it possible to mpirun to 
handle mluticore nodes of XE6 properly or is there any options to handle MCA 
parameters for aprun?

Regards,
