Re: [OMPI users] Meaning of ./configure --with-ft=LAM option

2011-06-20 Thread Josh Hursey
When we started adding Checkpoint/Restart functionality to Open MPI,
we were hoping to provide a LAM/MPI-like interface to the C/R
functionality. So we added a configure option as a placeholder. The
'LAM' option was intended to help those transitioning from LAM/MPI to
Open MPI. However we never got around to providing the wrapper
functionality for this, so the 'LAM' option in Open MPI defaults to
the Open MPI 'cr' option.

[OMPI users] Meaning of ./configure --with-ft=LAM option

2011-06-20 Thread Constantinos Makassikis
Hi everyone !

I have started playing a little bit with Open MPI 1.5.3 and
came across the  " --with-ft=LAM " option in the ./configure script.

However, I did not find its meaning anywhere in the doc ...


Best regards,
