Greetings, I have a manager/worker application. The manager is called "t2a" and the workers "w2d"
I launch the manager and each worker with its own mpiexec with n=1. They connect using various calls including MPI_Open_port, MPI_Comm_accept, MPI_Comm_connect and MPI_Intercomm_merge. It works fine. I am using the command: orted --persistent --seed --scope public --universe univ3 --set-sid to set up the universe and the mpiexec commands are: mpiexec -np 1 --universe univ3 t2a mpiexec -np 1 --universe univ3 w2d mpiexec -np 1 --universe univ3 w2d mpiexec -np 1 --universe univ3 w2d Question: What is the proper way to shutdown orted? I have found that if I just kill orted then I can't reuse the universe name. Platforms and OpenMPI versions: OS X openmpi-1.2.7 or openmpi-1.2.6 (ethernet) Rocks openmpi-1.2.6 (Infiniband) Thanks!
