Ummm...actually, there already is an MCA param that does precisely that:

OMPI_MCA_tmpdir_base

Perhaps we can modify this so that it reports in ompi_info?

Been there for years...sets the tmpdir for both orteds and procs.

The tmpdir argument for mpirun is there if you want to ONLY set the tmpdir base for mpirun. It provides a protective mechanism for cases where the head
node is configured differently than the compute nodes.

Slightly OT but along the same lines..

We currently have an argument to mpirun to set the HNP tmpdir (--
tmpdir).
Why don't we have an mca param to set the tmpdir for all the orted's
and such?

I looked over the code and I don't see any problems with the
changes. The only think I did is replacing the getenv("HOME") by
opal_home_directory ...

Here is the logic for selecting the TMP directory:

   if( NULL == (str = getenv("TMPDIR")) )
       if( NULL == (str = getenv("TEMP")) )
           if( NULL == (str = getenv("TMP")) )
               if( NULL == (str = opal_home_directory()) )
                   str = ".";

Do you have any of those (TMPDIR, TEMP or TMP) in your environment ?

So does anyone know why the session directories are in $HOME instead

I'm using r18044 and every time I run the session directories are
created in $HOME. George does this have anything to do with your
commits from earlier?
