I also have another question $ompi_info -aa|grep mpool |grep sm MCA coll: parameter "coll_sm_mpool" (current value: "sm", data source: default value) MCA mpool: parameter "mpool_sm_allocator" (current value: "bucket", data source: default value)
what do these names mean, and dont they have to be the same ? Lenny.
