If you are using a TCP network for MPI communications, static is fine. However, if you're trying to use an OS-bypass network such as InfiniBand, RoCE, or iWARP, using static libraries can be somewhat of a nightmare (because of how the OpenFabrics Verbs support libraries work). Specifically, I don't see the "openib" BTL plugin in your ompi_info output, meaning that your Open MPI installation is not capable of using InfiniBand/RoCE/iWARP.
So just be aware that with your current builds, you're basically TCP-only.
