Hi Thomas,
We need to track job resource usage in our resource manager for
accounting and resource policy enforcement, sharing single orted
process in multiple jobs makes the tracking much complicated. We don't
enforce other restrictions, and I'll appreciate any suggestion on how
to resolve this or work around this.
We have thought about mapping all processes from a mpirun into a
single job to simplify job resource tracking, but that will require much
spread changes in our software.
Thanks.
Tony

Hi,
Could you explain why you would like one orted on top of each MPI process?
There are some situations, like resource usage limitation / accounting, that
are possible to solve without changing the one daemon per node deployment.
Or do you enforce other kinds of restrictions on the orted process? Why
wouldn't it be able to launch more than one MPI process / why would not that be
desirable?
Bests,
Thomas

Hi,
I understand a single orted is shared by all MPI processes from the same
communicator on each execution host, does anyone see any problem that MPI/OMPI
may have problem with each process has its owner orted? My guess it is less
efficient in terms of MPI communication and memory foot print, but for
simplification of our integration with OMPI, launching one orted for each MPI
process is much easier to do.
I will appreciate if someone can confirm this setup will or will not work.
Thanks.
Tony
