You need to have exactly the same version of OpenMPI installed on both machines. Typically in a cluster all machines are identical in terms of software, if this isn't the case for your systems then the easiest way might be to compile open mpi from source (on the older of the two machines would be best) and to install it to a common directory on both machines.
