Ralph.

I'm having a problem when i try to select the rmaps resilient to be used:

/home/hmeyer/desarrollo/ompi-code/binarios/bin/mpirun -v -np 4 --hostfile
../hostfile --bynode -mca rmaps resilient -mca vprotocol receiver -mca plm
rsh -mca routed cm ./coll 6 10 2>out.txt


I get this as error:

[clus9:25568] [[53334,0],0] hostfile: checking hostfile ../hostfile for
nodes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your job failed to map. Either no mapper was available, or none
of the available mappers was able to perform the requested
mapping operation. This can happen if you request a map type
(e.g., loadbalance) and the corresponding mapper was not built.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[clus9:25568] errmgr:hnp:update_state() [[53334,0],0]) ------- App. Process
state updated for process NULL
[clus9:25568] [[53334,0],0] errmgr:hnp: job [53334,0] reported state NEVER

LAUNCHED
[clus9:25568] [[53334,0],0] errmgr:hnp: abort called on job [53334,0] with

Is there a flag that i'm not turning on? or a component that i should have
selected?

Thanks again.
