Yes, I meant MVAPICH2 :). > Both Open-MPI and MVAPICH2 (which is a port of MPICH2 to run > on IB), are easy to install (once you have OFED/OpenIB). > Open-MPI is a bit more flexible, as it supports TCP/IP, IB, > and other protocols, and has a number > of configurable features, several of them at runtime. > Both have mailing list support. > It really doesn't hurt to install and use both, > and they don't conflict. > > http://www.open-mpi.org/ On 11/21/12 4:49 PM, Hearns, John wrote: > > You can get a lot of help on the OpenMPI mailing list. > It is friendly, and the developers will answer questions quickly. > Please join that list! > > http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users Thanks for this recommendation. I actually have been in openmpi list since I first started with a small cluster (one desktop, two laptops) and tried to cluster them using NFS, DHCP, openMPI etc... few months ago, and I got a lot of help from openmpi community.

Yes, I am trying to get the system work with Torque/Maui/OpenMPI now.
