Depends what you refer to by "parent node". I assume you mean the submit host. This is never included in any created selection of SGE unless it's an execution host too. The master host of the parallel job (i.e. the one where the jobscript with the `mpiexec` is running) will be used as a normal machine from MPI's point of view. -- Reuti > Erik > > > On Thu, Jul 26, 2012 at 4:48 PM, Reuti <re...@staff.uni-marburg.de> wrote: > Am 26.07.2012 um 23:33 schrieb Erik Nelson: > > > I have a purely parallel job that runs ~100 processes.
