You are using cmd line options that no longer exist in the 1.9 release - look at "mpirun -h" for the current list of options.
FWIW: in your example, the correct cmd line would be: mpirun -np 2 --bind-to core -map-by core --report-bindings uptime Note the space in "--bind-to core" and the "-map-by" option syntax. The warning means that we didn't find libnuma installed on your machine, so we cannot bind memory allocations (but can bind processes).
