Hi In order to open a xterm for each of my processes i use the MCA parameter 'plm_rsh_agent' like this: mpirun -np 5 -hostfile allhosts -mca plm_base_verbose 1 -mca plm_rsh_agent "ssh -Y" --leave-session-attached xterm -hold -e ./MPIProg
Without the option ' -mca plm_rsh_agent "ssh -Y"' i can't open windows from the remote: jody@boss /mnt/data1/neander $ mpirun -np 5 -hostfile allhosts -mca plm_base_verbose 1 --leave-session-attached xterm -hold -e ./MPIStruct xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: xterm: DISPLAY is not set xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: xterm: DISPLAY is not set xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: xterm: DISPLAY is not set xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: xterm: DISPLAY is not set xterm: Xt error: Can't open display: xterm: DISPLAY is not set -------------------------------------------------------------------------- mpirun noticed that the job aborted, but has no info as to the process that caused that situation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there some replacement for this parameter, or how else can i get mpi to use" ssh -Y for" its connections? Thank You jody
