I apologize - I had to revert this myself as it broke support for backend launches on Torque and SLURM, which a number of us are actively using. Please see the commit message for r21488 for a complete explanation. Thanks Ralph On Fri, Jun 19, 2009 at 8:36 PM, Ralph Castain wrote: > I'm sorry, b

Re: [OMPI devel] why does --rankfile need hostlist?

2009-06-19 Thread Ralph Castain
Having gone around in circles on hostfile-related issues for over five years now, I honestly have little motivation to re-open the entire discussion again. It doesn't seem to be that daunting a requirement for those who are using it, so I'm inclined to just leave well enough alone. :-) On Fri, Ju

I'm sorry, but this change is incorrect. If you look in orte/mca/ess/base/ess_base_std_orted.c, you will see that -all- orteds, regardless of how they are launched, open and select the PLM. This change causes rsh launched daemons to doubly-open/select the PLM, which is a very bad idea. Would you

[OMPI devel] OMPI performance competitiveness

2009-06-19 Thread Eugene Loh
A few of us have been discussing OMPI's performance competitiveness recently and the possibility of organizing an effort within the OMPI community to assess better where we stand (potentially in an automated basis, such as through MTT). Does anyone have licenses for other MPI implementations

2009-06-19 Thread David Robertson
Hi all, I have compiled Open MPI 1.3.2 with Intel Fortran and C/C++ 11.0 compilers. Fortran Real*16 seems to be working except for MPI_Allreduce. I have attached a simple program to show what I mean. I am not an MPI programmer but I work for one and he actually wrote the attached program. The
