Stephan,
Have you already checked https://github.com/pmix/prrte ?
This is the PMIx Reference RunTime Environment (PPRTE), which was built
on top of orted.
Long story short, it deploys the PMIx server and then you start your MPI
app with prun
An example is available at
https://github.com/pmix/prrte/blob/master/contrib/travis/test_client.sh
Cheers,
Gilles

Hallo everyone,
I am currently implementing a PMIx server and I try to use it with
OpenMPI. I do have an own mpiexec which starts my PMIx server and
launches the processes.
If I launch an executable linked against OpenMPI, during MPI_Init() the
ORTE layer starts another PMIx server and overrides my PMIX_*
environment so this new server is used instead of mine.
So I am looking for a method to prevent orte(d) from starting a PMIx
server.
I already tried to understand what the slurm support is doing, since
this is (at least in parts) what I think I need. Somehow when starting
a job with srun --mpi=pmix_v2 the ess module pmi is started, but I was
not able to enforce that manually by setting an MCA parameter (oss
should be the correct one?!?)
And I do not yet have a clue how the slurm support is working.
So does anyone has a hint for me where I can find documentation or
information concerning that or is there an easy way to achieve what I
am trying to do that I missed?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Stephan
