When you launch a job with "srun", you have to include the option that specifies which MPI "glue" to use. You can find the available options with "--mpi=list" - you should see a "pmix_v3" option. Your cmd line should then be "srun --mpi=pmix_v3 ..."
You can also set that to be the default in your Slurm config file. > On Aug 5, 2020, at 8:40 AM, Luis Cebamanos via devel > <devel@lists.open-mpi.org> wrote: > > Hi, > > Just an update on this.
