(cc'ing back to ParaView list) It looks like your pvserver is not compiled with MPI. Are you using binaries you downloaded from Kitware? That won't work. You will have to compile pvserver yourself with MPI. Again, details are on the Wiki.

But I am sorry that I am still not very clear about what to do.I have two nodes and on node2 I type the following command: $cat machinefile node2 node1 $mpdboot -n 2 -f machinefile $mpdtrace node2 node1 $mpirun -n 2 pvserver -display localhost:0 -tdx=2 -tdy=1 Listen on port: 11111 Waiting for client... Listen on port: 11111 Waiting for client... And then I run paraview on node1 $paraview A GUI interface shows up and I connect it to server node2 (File->Connect). Then I open a sample dataset(ParaViewData/Data/tube.exii) and press the button Apply,but I only see an image in the GUI interface on node1 and nothing on node2. I am new to ParaView, can you tell me what to do next? I really appreciate your help. -Ning On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 10:12 PM, Moreland, Kenneth <[email protected]> wrote: You have to run a single MPI job over both of your machines and then turn on tiled display with the -tdx and -tdy flags.

When I ran pvserver on one machine as a server and ran paraview on the other as a client , and then I connected the client to the server, it worked well. Now I want to render a sample dataset and show the results on a tiled display wall,that is , the two monitors connected to the client and the server. But I have no idea how to make this happen. Can someone give me some help?
