Is the best way to grab such stuff via IPMI? That might well be do-able, since there's no performance penalty for reading such values until you actually read the values (i.e., we don't actively monitor these values in OMPI's overall progression engine; they're only read when the application invokes an MPI_T read function). -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
