I agree there are two cases for pure-MPI mode: 1. Job fails with no apparent 
reason;  2 job complains shared-memory file on network file system, which can 
be resolved by " export TMPDIR=/home/yanb/tmp", /home/yanb/tmp is my local 
directory. The default TMPDIR points to a Lustre directory.

There is no any other output. I checked my job with "qstat -n" and found that 
processes were actually not started on compute nodes even though PBS Pro has 
"started" my job.

It looks like you have two general cases:

1. The job fails for no apparent reason (like above), or 2. The job complains 
that your TMPDIR is on a shared filesystem

Right?

I think the real issue, then, is to figure out why your jobs are failing with 
no output.

Is there anything in the stderr output?
