Hello Joshua, My firewall seems to be turned ON and it currently accepts all incoming connections. Also I can ping or ssh into the other end from both the Mac and the Linux box. Please let me know if i need to provide any specific command line options. regards, pallab > Hello Pallab, > > I

Hello, I am running open-mpi between a Mac OSX (v.10.5) and Ubuntu Server V.9.04 (Linux Box). I have configured OMPI V.1.3.3 on both of them with --enable-heterogeneous --disable-shared --enable-static options. The Linux box is connected via a wireless USB Adapter to the same sub-network in which

Hi Souvik Also worth checking: 1) If you can ssh passwordless from ict1 to ict2 *and* vice versa. 2) If your /etc/hosts file on *both* machines list ict1 and ict2 and their IP addresses. 3) In case you have a /home directory on each machine (i.e. /home is not NFS mounted) if your .bashrc files o

Hi Souvik I would guess you only installed OpenMPI only on ict1, not on ict2. If that is the case you won't have the required OpenMPI libraries on ict:/usr/local, and the job won't run on ict2. I am guessing this, because you used a prefix under /usr/local, which tends to be a "per machine" dir

Dear all, Myself quite new to Open MPI. Recently, I had installed openmpi-1.3.3 separately on two of my machines ict1 and ict2. These machines are dual-socket quad-core (Intel Xeon E5410) i.e. each having 8 processors and are connected by Gigabit ethernet switch. As a prerequisite, I can ssh betwe

Dear all, I have installed blcr 0.8.2 and Open MPI (r21973) on my NFS account. By default, it seems that checkpoints are saved in $HOME. However, I would prefer them to be saved on a local disk (e.g.: /tmp). Does anyone know how I can change the location where Open MPI saves checkpoints? B

yes, I had this issue before (we are on 9.04 as well). it has to do with the hosts file. Erin, can you send your hosts file? I think you want to make this the first line of your host file: 127.0.0.1 localhost Which Ubuntu, if memory serves defaults to the name of the machine instead of loc

2009-09-18 Thread Ralph Castain
It doesn't matter - 1.3 isn't going to launch another daemon on the local node. The problem here is that OMPI isn't recognizing your local host as being "local" - i.e., it thinks that the host mpirun is executing on is somehow not the the local host. This has come up before with ubuntu -

It is dangerous to hold a local lock (like a mutex} across a blocking MPI call unless you can be 100% sure everything that must happen remotely will be completely independent of what is done with local locks & communication dependancies on other tasks. It is likely that a MPI_Comm_spawn call in w

Hi Ashika, Yes you can serialize the call using pthead mutex if you have created threads using pthreads. Basically whatever thread libray you are using for thread creation provides synchronization API's which you have to use here. OPAL_THREAD_LOCK and UNLOCK code is also implemented using s
