2009-12-21 Thread Sangamesh B
Hi, MPICh2 has different process managers: MPD, SMPD, GFORKER etc. Is the Open MPI's startup daemon orted similar to MPICH2's smpd? Or something else? Thanks, Sangamesh

Thanks, that did it! BTW, in the man page for mpirun you should perhaps mention the "!" option in xterm - the one that keeps the xterms open after the application exits. Thanks Jody On Mon, Dec 21, 2009 at 3:25 PM, Ralph Castain wrote: > Is your MANPATH set to point to

Hello folks, As I explained my problem earlier, I am looking for Fault Tolerance in MPI Programs. I read in Open MPI 2.1 standard document that two DISCONNECTED processes does not affect each other, i.e. they can die or can be killed without whithout affecting other processes. So, I was trying
