The "RETRY EXCEEDED ERROR" error is related to IB and not MTT.

The error says that IB failed to send IB packet from

machine 10.2.1.90 to 10.2.1.50

You need to run your IB network monitoring tool and found the issue.

Usually it is some bad cable in IB fabric that causes such errors.

Hi,

I need some help, please.

I'm running a set of MTT tests on my cluster and I have issues in a
particular node.
[0,1,7][btl_openib_component.c:1332:btl_openib_component_progress] from
10.2.1.90 to: 10.2.1.50 error polling HP CQ with status RETRY EXCEEDED
ERROR status number 12 for wr_id 268870712 opcode 0

I am able to ping from 10.2.1.90 to 10.2.1.50, and they are visible to
each other in the network, just like the other nodes. I've already
checked the drivers, reinstalled openmpi, but nothing changes...

On 10.2.1.90:
# ping 10.2.1.50
PING 10.2.1.50 (10.2.1.50) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.2.1.50: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=9.95 ms
64 bytes from 10.2.1.50: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.076 ms
64 bytes from 10.2.1.50: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.114 ms


The cable connections are the same to every node and all tests run fine
without 10.2.1.90. In the other hand, when I add 10.2.1.90 to the
hostlist, I get many failures.

Please, could someone tell me why 10.2.1.90 doesn't like 10.2.1.50 ? Any
clue?

I don't see any problems with other combination of nodes. This is very
very weird.

I also attached one of the errors here.
