Greetings John. I think you want to direct your mail to the Open MPI User's mailing list -- this list is for the testing framework known as the MPI Testing Tool (MTT). It's a sub-project of the greater Open MPI project, but the audience over here isn't well-equipped to answer specific questions about the Open MPI software package.

Hello OpenMPI folks,

I've got a large pool of Macs running Leopard that are all on an xgrid. However, I can't seem to use the mpirun that comes with Leopard with the xgrid. I've got my grid and password environment variables set up okay on my controller, all the xgrid command line commands work (displaying grid IDs, things like that) but mpirun only wants to run things on the local host.

I'm extremely new to OpenMPI and only slightly less new to Macs so there's probably something very obvious that I'm missing, but I'm trying what's detailed on this page: http://www.macresearch.org/runing_mpi_job_through_xgrid (the /bin/hostname example). Here's my output:

as-0003-l:~ locadmin$ mpirun -n 8 /bin/hostname
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca
as-0003-l.lib.mcmaster.ca



Issuing the same command with -nolocal yields the following:

as-0003-l:~ locadmin$ mpirun --nolocal -n 8 /bin/hostname
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are no available nodes allocated to this job. This could be because
no nodes were found or all the available nodes were already used.

Note that since the -nolocal option was given no processes can be
launched on the local node.

Thanks very much for any help you can provide!
