Manumachu,
Both nodes have the same IP for their Phi (mic0 and mic1). This is OK as long
as they don't try to connect to each other using these addresses. A simple fix
is to prevent OMPI from using the supposedly local mic0 and mic1 IP. Add --mca
btl_tcp_if_exclude mic0,mic1 to your mpirun command and things should start
working better.
