Hi Rene, that didn't fix the problem, unfortunately.
I did manage to get it to fix it by calling addprocs from a remote machine
in the cluster.
So I think there is a problem with firewalls -- perhaps the remote machine
is trying to SSH back into the local one and failing.
It would be nice if
I'm unable to add a remote instance using addprocs (or a machine file).
This works (without prompt):
ssh xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
This command hangs with no output for the first minute:
addprocs([usern...@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx])
Then after one minute, the following message appears:
Master process (id 1) could
Can you try whether using tunnel = true helps?
http://docs.julialang.org/en/release-0.3/stdlib/parallel/#Base.addprocs
When tunnel==false (the default), the workers need to be able to see each other
directly, which will not work through firewalls which allow only ssh etc.
