Generating core files is not a feature of Open MPI but of the operating system. Based on the shell script you're using there is a different way to reach this goal. Usually via limit (or ulimit). This webpage can give you more information about this (http://www.faqs.org/ faqs/hp/hpux-faq/section-257.html).

I'm using OpenMPI, and the documentation says that only a totalview
style of debugger can be used. With that in mind, all I want to do is
get a core-dump when a process crashes. I can then just load the core
into GDB. Is there any easy way to do this?

I tried calling signal(SIGSEGV, SIG_DFL); signal(SIGABRT, SIG_DFL); to
no avail. All that happens is that I don't get a call stack dump
anymore.

Thanks,
