Application processes will *only* be placed on nodes included in the allocation. The -nolocal flag is intended to ensure that no application processes are started on the same node as mpirun in the case where that node is included in the allocation. This happens, for example, with Torque, where

I was under the impression that the -nolocal option keeps processes off the submit host (since there may be hundreds or thousands of jobs submitted at any time, and we don't want this host to be overloaded). My understanding of what you said in you last email is that, by listing the hosts, I

Ralph, Rmpi wraps everything up, so I tried setting them with export OMPI_plm_base_verbose=5 export OMPI_dpm_base_verbose=5 and I get no extra messages even on helloworld example simple MPI-1.0 code. Brock Palen www.umich.edu/~brockp CAEN Advanced Computing bro...@umich.edu (734)936-1985

Well, it looks like comm_spawn is working on 1.6. Afraid I don't know enough about Rmpi/snow to advise on what changed, but you could add some debug params to get an idea of where the problem is occurring: -mca plm_base_verbose 5 -mca dpm_base_verbose 5 should tell you from an OMPI

Weird - looks like it has done a comm_spawn and having trouble connecting between the jobs. I can check the basic code and make sure it is working - I seem to recall someone else recently talking about Rmpi changes causing problems (different ones than this, IIRC), so you might want to search
