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.

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
Could you please clarify - what "Bproc kernel patch" are you referring to?
Thanks

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,
