This is very helpful to me. Thanks a lot!

I did not mount pvfs2 on the cse-wang-server previously. Now I have
pvfs2 mounted on both machines:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mpi-tile-io]# ls /mnt/pvfs2
foo  include  lost+found  mpiblast

[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux]# ls /mnt/pvfs2
foo  include  lost+found  mpiblast

The MPICH2 was also properly setup:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mpi-tile-io]# mpiexec -l -n 2 hostname
1: cse-wang-server.unl.edu
0: cse-wang05b.unl.edu

However, the same problem still exist:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mpi-tile-io]# mpirun -np 100 mpi-tile-io
--nr_tiles_x 25 --nr_tiles_y 4 --sz_tile_x    100 --sz_tile_y 100
--sz_element 32 --filename /mnt/pvfs2/foo
problem with execution of mpi-tile-io  on  cse-wang-server.unl.edu: 
[Errno 2] No such file or directory
problem with execution of mpi-tile-io  on  cse-wang05b.unl.edu: 
[Errno 2] No such file or directory
....

What am I missing here?
