I very much doubt that either of those mappers has ever been tested against comm_spawn. Just glancing thru them, I don't see an immediate reason why loadbalance wouldn't work, but the error indicates that the system wound up mapping one or more processes to an unknown node. We are revising the

2011-02-21 Thread Skouson, Gary B
I'm trying to use MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple and it doesn't seem to always work like I'd expect. The simple test code I have starts a couple of master processes and then tries to spawn a couple of worker threads on each of the nodes running the master processes. I was using 1.5.1, but gave 1.5.2r

All of the hosts that will be used in the job must be included in the original hostfile - even if the hosts won't be used until comm_spawn. The name in the hostfile must match the name provided in the info object as we otherwise would have to do DNS resolves to detect the alias, which would have

Hi everyone ! I have to submit you a question, I write a little code that does and MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple on a specific set of node. The node where to run on are specified using the "host" attribute of the MPI_Info object. That attribute is filled with the string get from MPI_Get_processor_name.

Oups, sorry ! I followed these steps : 1) Install a debian system (sarge 3.1r2). 2) Use a 2.6.9 kernel patched with bproc 4.0.0pre8 (http://bproc.sourceforge.net) the options CONFIG_BPROC, CONFIG_ROMFS_FS, CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM, CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD, CONFIG_TMPFS where activated via the 'make me

Hi, I'm using MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple with Open MPI 1.1.1. It used to work well, until I used the Bproc kernel patch. When I use the Bproc patch, my program freezes when calling MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple. Does MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple and BProc can work together ? Thanks, Laurent Porez
