Re: [OMPI users] Creating An MPI Job from Procs Launched by a Different Launcher
You need a way for your process to exchange information so MPI_Init() can work. One option is to have your custom launcher implement a PMIx server https://pmix.github.io If you choose this path, you will likely want to use the Open PMIx reference implementation https://openpmix.github.io so your custom launcher would "only" have to implement a limited number of callbacks.

Short answer is yes, but it it a bit complicated to do.

Hi, I am trying to run an MPI program on a platform that launches the processes using a custom launcher (not mpiexec). This will end up spawning N processes of the program, but I am not sure if MPI_Init() would work or not in this case? Is it possible to have a group of processes launched by some other means to be tied into an MPI communicator? Thank you, Saliyaf
