Hi, I'm using openmpi-1.6.4 to distribute a jobs in 2 different nodes using this command: *"mpirun --hostfile myhostfile -np 10 nwchem my_code.nw"* Here, "myhostfile" contains: *cx0937 slots=5 * *cx0934 slots=5*
But as I have to submit the jobs using .pbs script, I'm wondering in this case, how "mpirun" going to choose the node (free node allocation is done by pbs) from "myhostfile". I mean, does it happen that until the specific-nodes (as mentioned in myhostfile) become free "mpirun" is going to wait and then start ? How can I forward the allocated node name(by pbs) to *mpirun* command ? A little light on this matter would be really great. Thank you. -- Abhisek Mondal *Research Fellow* *Structural Biology and Bioinformatics* *Indian Institute of Chemical Biology* *Kolkata 700032* *INDIA*
