Hi Adam, No I haven't used the Mesosphere version - It requires downloading packages from AWS and I was hoping to avoid this. I am using the one on Apache git repo: https://github.com/apache/mesos/tree/master/mpi but it has the problems I mentioned. I'll probably try out the Mesopshere version this week - since it doesn't seem I am getting an answer for the other one anyway.
