Hi, While searching again for stuff to alleviate my recurring confusion about OpenMPI, PMIx and Slurm, I can across the following posting from myself:
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05468.html In it I asked with reference to building OpenMPI with --with-slurm: It seems to me that '--with-slurm' is not needed at all, since this has been the default at least as far back as OpenMPI 1.0.1. So following Åke's argument in the discussion in the link, wouldn't it be better to change the comments in the OpenMPI ECs to just: # to enable PMI integration (site-specific) # configopts = '--with-pmi' ? Back then no-one responded and the thread died. However, the following https://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=building#build-rte seems to support the idea that --with-slurm is not needed. So should the comment in the OpenMPI EC be changed? Cheers, Loris -- Dr. Loris Bennett (Herr/Mr) ZEDAT, Freie Universität Berlin Email [email protected]
