Thanks Ruben, I'll give it a try, but I think I did those things. Not sure that mpich2 is outdated- it works just fine, but isn't compatible with Rmpi package, and it seems I can't have both on a machine, need to "pick a side" (Microsoft or non-Microsoft). Not clear there is a way to specify which mpiexec to use in a given application, along with lots of other stuff I don't understand.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and are expecting the message. Hi Mark, Last time I tried this (2016, Windows 8 64-bit), NONMEM needed some convincing: 1) You have to copy over the right object files from Microsoft MPI into the NONMEM mpi link directory mpi\mpi_wini; _and_ change the nmfe compiler call to include the right Microsoft MPI libraries. This should allow you to compile a nonmem executable using the Microsoft MPI libraries. 2) You need to launch nonmem with the right wrapper (I think it was mpiexec) 3) You have to configure firewall rules to allow local communication for MPI. This may be tricky, as windows detects each nonmem.exe as a different executable with different firewall rules. If I remember correctly, this is where I got stuck last time. It *did* work however when deactivating the Windows Firewall. Hopefully these vague pointers can help you; I unfortunately did not retain my notes. If you get it working, it would be worthwhile to document this process for the community! My suggestions to link to Microsoft MPI by default (as mpich2 is hopelessly outdates) were not high on ICON's priority list.

In this article. Microsoft MPI (MS-MPI) is a Microsoft implementation of the Message Passing Interface standard for developing and running parallel applications on the Windows platform.. MS-MPI offers several benefits: we need to run this for another parallel application, and when we installed it, it broke parallel NONMEM. We're using Intel Fortran, 64 bit Window Server (2012). thanks Mark Sale M.D. Senior Vice President, Pharmacometrics Nuventra Pharma Sciences, Inc. 2525 Meridian Parkway, Suite 200 Durham, NC 27713 Phone (919)-973-0383 ms...@nuventra.com<http://ms...@kinetigen.com> Join Nuventra at upcoming events: AAPS<https://www.nuventra.com/resources/events/aaps-pharmsci-360/> | November 4-7 | Washington, DC | Booth #701 The Path to IND<https://www.nuventra.com/resources/events/webinar-the-path-to-ind/> | Webinar | November 14 | 1pm-2pm Check out our latest blog post<https://www.nuventra.com/resources/blog/>.
