Hi,

I ran some tests on Summitdev here at ORNL:
- the UCX problem is solved and I get the expected results for the tests that I 
am running (netpipe and IMB).
- without UCX:
        * the performance numbers are below what would be expected but I 
believe at this point that the slight performance deficiency is due to other 
users using other parts of the system. 
        * I also encountered the following problem while running IMB_EXT and I 
now realize that I had the same problem with 2.4.1rc1 but did not catch it at 
the time:
[summitdev-login1:112517:0] Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault)
[summitdev-r0c2n13:91094:0] Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault)

FYI, the 2.x series is not important to me so it can stay as is. I will move on 
testing 3.1.2rc1.

Thanks,
