Hi there,

I’m getting the following message:

---
WARNING: It appears that your OpenFabrics subsystem is configured to only
allow registering part of your physical memory.  This can cause MPI jobs to
run with erratic performance, hang, and/or crash.

This may be caused by your OpenFabrics vendor limiting the amount of
physical memory that can be registered.  You should investigate the
relevant Linux kernel module parameters that control how much physical
memory can be registered, and increase them to allow registering all
physical memory on your machine.

See this Open MPI FAQ item for more information on these Linux kernel module
parameters:

   http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=openfabrics#ib-locked-pages

 Local host:              node045.cluster.example.com
 Registerable memory:     32768 MiB
 Total memory:            130636 MiB

Your MPI job will continue, but may be behave poorly and/or hang.

I’m pretty sure this is no longer relevant (having read Roland’s messages about 
it from a couple of years ago now). Can you please confirm that for me, and 
then let me know if there is any way that I can silence this old copy of 
OpenMPI that I need to use with some software that depends on it for some 
reason? It is causing my users to report it as an issue pretty regularly.

Thanks!
