But if openmpi is installed, I can automatically instrument my
application with Vampir  (ie I don't have to install vtf separately -
right?)

And I can view with Vampir Trace the results of my app's parallel run?

I think you're expect something that the MPI profiling interface is  
not supposed to provide you. There is no tool to dump or print any  
profile information by default (and it is not mandated by the  
standard). What this option does, is compile the profiling interface  
(as defined by the MPI standard) allowing external tools to gather  
information about the MPI application.

But you need an extra tool.
