Ralph,
Where would these be, in /dev?

for mlx4_0"

You might want to check the permissions on the MLX device directory - according 
to that error message, the permissions are preventing you from accessing the 
device. Without getting access, we don’t have a way to communicate across nodes 
- you can run on one node using shared memory, but not multiple nodes.

So it looks like there is some device-level permissions issue in play.

Hi,
   I have a system of AMD blades that I am trying to run MCNP6 on using 
OPENMPI. I installed openmpi-1.6.5. I also have installed Intel FORTRAN and C 
compiles. I compiled MCNP6 using FC="mpif90" CC="mpicc" … It runs just fine 
when I run it on a 1-hour test case on just one blade. I need to run it on 
several blades, but it issues an error and crashes and burns. I have sought 
help here, but no one seems to know how to fix it. I have mounted /opt and 
/home on bud and bud6 on the corresponding /opt and /home on bud4, at their 
suggestion. That did not fix anything. Please look at the attached file 
(created with bud4>tar -zcf info.tgz mpihT3) that holds the data that is 
requested at https://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/ and in bullet 13 
onhttps://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/ . Can you look at it and suggest a 
solution? I suspect that it is something trivial that does not stand out and 
say, “look here you idiot.” Thanks.
