Hi,

may I ask why you need/want to launch orted manually ?

Good question.

The intention is to get orted commands, and run orted with Mesos.
This all comes from who Mesos works, in essence it offers resources(cpu/memory/ports) in a per host basis to framework, framework then builds information of how to run specific tasks, and pass those information to Mesos master, at last Mesos will
instructs hosts to execute the framework tasks.

Take MPICH2 as example, the framework to support MPICH2 works as above.
1. framework gets offers from Mesos master, and tells the Mesos master to run a wrapper of MPICH2 proxy(hydra_pmi_proxy), at this time, the wrapper waits for commands to
execute the proxy.

2. After launch enough MPICH2 proxy wrapper on hosts as user expect, then run the real mpiexec program with '-launcher manual' to grab commands for the proxy, then pass those commands to the proxy wrapper, so finally the real MPICH2 proxy got launched,
and mpiexec will proceed on normally.

That's why I'm looking for similar functionality as '-launcher manual MPICH2.
Non native speaker, I hope I tell the story clear :)



unless you are running under a batch manager, Open MPI uses the rsh pml
to remotely start orted.
basically, it does
ssh host orted <orted params>

the best I can suggest is you do

mpirun --mca orte_rsh_agent myrshagent.sh --mca orte_launch_agent
mylaunchagent.sh  ...
under the hood, mpirun will do
myrshagent.sh host mylaunchagent.sh <orted params>

Cheers,

Gilles

    Hi folks

    Starting from Open MPI, I can launch mpi application a.out as
    following on host1
    mpirun --allow-run-as-root --host host1,host2 -np 4 /tmp/a.out

    On host2, I saw an proxy, say orted here is spawned:
    orted --hnp-topo-sig 4N:2S:4L3:20L2:20L1:20C:40H:x86_64 -mca ess env
    -mca orte_ess_jobid 1275133952 -mca orte_ess_vpid 1 -mca
    orte_ess_num_procs 2 -mca orte_hnp_uri
    1275133952.0;tcp://host1_ip:40024 --tree-spawn -mca plm rsh --tree-spawn

    It seems mpirun use ssh as launcher on my system.
    What if I want to run orted things manually, not by mpirun
    automatically,
    I mean, does mpirun has any option to produce commands for orted?

    As for MPICH2 implementation, there is "-launcher manual" option to
    make this works,
    for example:
    # mpiexec.hydra -launcher manual -np 4 htop
    HYDRA_LAUNCH: /usr/local/bin/hydra_pmi_proxy --control-port
    grantleyIPDC04:34652 --rmk user --launcher manual --demux poll
    --pgid 0 --retries 10 --usize -2 --proxy-id 0
    HYDRA_LAUNCH_END

    Then I can manually run hydra_pmi_proxy with commands, and
    mpiexec.hydra will proceed on.

    Thanks!
