Hello George and @ll.

Sorry for the late answer, but i was doing some trace to see where is set
the MPI_ERROR. I took a look to ompi_request_default_wait and try to see
what happen with request.

Well, i've noticed that all requests that are not inmediately solved go
to ompi_request_wait_completion. But i don't know exactly where the
execution jumps when i inject a failure to the receiver of the message.
After the failure, the sender does not return
from ompi_request_wait_completion to ompi_request_default_wait, and i don't
know where to catch when the req->req_status.MPI_ERROR is set. Do you know
where jumps the execution? or at least in which error handler?

Thanks in advance.

Hugo
