Cool. Thanks for the pointer. If MPI is compiled with that option, can it be overridden by the command line? That is, will orterun --prefix /a/b cause /a/b or the original config argument to be searched?

Probably doesn't matter too much since I don't want to chance moving the files after make install....

I used this script to launch mpi:

R_PROFILE_USER=~/KHC/sunbelt/Rmpiprofile 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/ross/install/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH  
PATH=/home/ross/install/bin:/home/ross/install/lib64/R/bin:$PATH orterun -x 
R_PROFILE_USER -x LD_LIBRARY_PATH \
-x PATH -hostfile ~/KHC/sunbelt/hosts -np 18 R --no-save -q

For each remote node I get a message like
[n11:07642] Error: unknown option "--tree-spawn"

According to previous exchanges on this list that is a sign that the remote 
nodes are picking up the old system version of MPI instead of my new local one. 
 Apparently the PATH values I exported are not used; presumably it's the same 
for LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I found this surprising.

RTFM disclosed the --prefix argument to orterun, and that seems to do the trick.

Am I missing anything?
