OK, you might want to look at the command line in the qsub script though since it doesn't make use of the environment variables. Not sure if that's really your issue though.

I've used PV with openmpi, mvapich2, mpich2, cray mpt, and intel mpi. Very rarely seen any interactions between pv and various implementations. Once or twice hit some weird memory bugs in mvapich.

Thanks for the prompt response - I will try with the master of 3.14.0
Burlen - We don't need to do tunnelling for this cluster (we did for other clusters), because the compute nodes of viz cluser are visible across the network (ie I am able to ssh from a compute node on the viz cluster back to my workstation). I am now pinning my hope on testing with a different MPI than Intel - Can I ask what MPI do you use with ParaView?

    I know that there were some connection issues with “older”
    versions of PV 3.14.0.  This problem would be in the source for
    3.14.0-RC2.  Give master a try, and see if that helps.  We did
    find the PV_CLIENT_HOST variable problem – it is fixed in master.

    Hi,

    I am trying to get ParaView-3.12.0 working on our visualisation
    cluster.  However I am getting errors such as the following

    "Socket error in call to conect : Connection refused"

    As a bit of a background, I have ParaView-3.10.1 working in
    client-server mode on the same cluster. On the server, we have
    IntelMPI-4.0.1 and Slurm as the scheduler.

    I tried debugging the problem by printing stuff out in
    vtkSocket.cxx file - I always get the message which says
    "Connected" from slurm out file.  The ParaView-3.12.0 client then
    just hangs.

    I did get it to work by using a machinefile (ie outside slurm) and
    it worked in client-server to my work station.

    I am not really sure what is the cause of this - my suspicion is
    that this either to do with IntelMPI-4.0.1 and ParaView-3.12.0 or
    with Slurm-2.1.4 (which is what is available on the cluster).

    Can some one please give me some hints how I can debug this further?

    Any pointers are greately appreciated.

    Given my level of desperation, I tried with Paraview-3.14.0-RC2
    and things have really changed here - for example, what happend to
    the PV_CLIENT_HOST variable? Is this no longer set?

    I also note that when you set up a profile to connect to the
    server in reverse-connection mode, it no longer allows you to
    specifiy host name - is this intentional?

    Regards,

    Rakesh
