Hi all,

From what I understand, PVFS does not have a notion of a client and server maintaining any connection state. The client will simply send an unexpected message to the server that may or may not be followed by a series of expected sends between the two.

Since clients initiate all first contact with the servers, what is the standard procedure? Send an unexpected message only or post a receive and then send an unexpected message and wait for an expected send from the server?

I am trying to determine whether a send or receive is posted first for a new peer.

Also, can more than one BMI method be called at anyone time (e.g. concurrent send and/or recvs)?

Scott
