Hello Jeff, I think what you suggest is likely exactly what we want to see happen. We run the interop tests with at least two servers, sometimes more. We also have other devices (InfiniBand or RoCE switches) between the servers.
I will have to ask a stupid question here but when you suggest that we open the firewall to trust random TCP connections, how is that different from disabling it? Is there some configuration besides the suggestion by Gilles to specify ports or a range of ports? I thank you. -- Llolsten -----Original Message----- From: users [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Jeff Squyres (jsquyres) Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2016 3:47 PM To: Open MPI User's List <us...@open-mpi.org> Subject: Re: [OMPI users] mpirun command won't run unless the firewalld daemon is disabled Open MPI generally needs to be able to communicate on random TCP ports between machines in the MPI job (and the machine where mpirun is invoked, if that is a different machine). You could also open your firewall to trust random TCP connections just between the servers in your cluster. > On May 10, 2016, at 3:44 PM, Llolsten Kaonga <l...@soft-forge.com> wrote: > > Hello Orion, > > I actually rather like the new CentOS 7.2 system better and would like > to not remove firewalld.
