Of course you also have to have a common (NFS) filesystem.
This means, your data have to be in a certain directory, which must be
exported on the server and mounted on the remote node under the same
node (with rwx permissions)
test:
pwd
export PWD=`cwd` (if not already set)
ssh nodeXX "cd $PWD;ls"
Then you need passwordless login, and (as you now have done ?) you must
make sure that ssh transmits/accepts your current environment.
To run k-point parallel across different nodes, is it enough to simply
have w2k installed on all the nodes along with pw-less ssh? I have
pw-less ssh working among the nodes, but when I try to run another
kpoint on another node, the shell cannot find the executables:
$ x lapw1 -p
starting parallel lapw1 at Wed Oct 16 10:48:53 PDT 2013
-> starting parallel LAPW1 jobs at Wed Oct 16 10:48:53 PDT 2013
