Hi Henk, By specifying '--mca btl mx,self' you are telling Open MPI not to use its shared memory support. If you want to use Open MPI's shared memory support, you must add 'sm' to the list. I.e. '--mca btl mx,self'. If you would rather use MX's shared memory support, instead use '--mca btl mx

Note that since you are setting OMPI_MCA_pml to cm, OMPI_MCA_btl will have no effect. You may try setting OMPI_MCA_pml=ob1, and trying your measurements again, but we generally get better performance with the cm pml than then ob1 pml. Tim On Wednesday 06 June 2007 12:54:26 pm George Bosilca wr

Open MPI uses TCP, and does not use any fixed ports. We use whatever ports the operating system gives us. At this time there is no way to specify what ports to use. Hope this helps, Tim On Friday 18 May 2007 05:19 am, Code Master wrote: > I run my openmpi-based application in a multi-node clus

Hi Laurent, Unfortunately, as far as I know, none of the current Open MPI developers has access to a system with POE, so the POE process launcher has fallen into disrepair. Attached is a patch that should allow you to compile (however, you may also need to add #include to pls_poe_module.c).

Hi Barry, The problem is the line: ncpus=`wc -l $PBS_NODEFILE` wc will print out the file name after the count. So ncpus gets "16 / var/spool/torque/aux//350.wc01" and your mpirun command will look like: mpirun -np 16 /var/spool/torque/aux//350.wc01 /home/test/hpcc-1.0.0/hpcc So mpirun will t
