Re: [OMPI users] CMAQ crashes with OpenMPI

2011-08-09 Thread Barrett, Brian W
The error message looks like it's no where near an MPI function; I would guess that this is not an Open MPI problem but, particularly given your statements about Snow Leopard) a CMAQ problem. The easiest way to debug on OS X is to launch the application code in a debugger, something like: mpiru

Also, please be aware that we haven't done any testing of OMPI on Lion, so this is truly new ground. On Aug 9, 2011, at 3:00 PM, Doug Reeder wrote: > Matt, > > Are you sure you are building against your macports version of openmpi and > not the one that ships w/ lion. In the trace back are it

Matt, Are you sure you are building against your macports version of openmpi and not the one that ships w/ lion. In the trace back are items 4-9, that end w/ x86_64pg from the pgi compiler. You said you are using pgf90 and pgcc but in the configure input it looks like gcc is being used on lion.

[OMPI users] CMAQ crashes with OpenMPI

Hi, I'm trying to run CMAQ - an air quality model developed by the US EPA - on a Mac (Lion) using OpenMPI (1.5.3) installed with MacPorts. I am able to run CMAQ in parallel, and am able to run small programs that use OpenMPI. I set the OpenMPI environment variables to use pgf90/pgcc (10.9) as my

Hi Ralph, Yes, you are right. Those nodes were still pointing to an old version. I'll check the installation on all nodes and try to run it again. Thanks, - Chansup On Tue, Aug 9, 2011 at 1:48 PM, Ralph Castain wrote: > That error makes no sense - line 335 is just a variable declaration. Sure

That error makes no sense - line 335 is just a variable declaration. Sure you are not picking up a different version on that node? On Aug 9, 2011, at 11:37 AM, CB wrote: > Hi, > > Currently I'm having trouble to scale an MPI job beyond a certain limit. > So I'm running an MPI hello example to

Hi, Currently I'm having trouble to scale an MPI job beyond a certain limit. So I'm running an MPI hello example to test beyond 1024 but it failed with the following error with 2048 processes. It worked fine with 1024 processes. I have enough file descriptor limit (65536) defined for each process

2011-08-09 Thread Jeff Squyres
No, Open MPI doesn't use the names in the hostfile to figure out which TCP/IP addresses to use (for example). Each process ends up publishing a list of IP addresses at which it can be connected, and OMPI does routability computations to figure out which is the "best" address to contact a given

I don't know if this is it, but if you use the name localhost, won't processes on both machines try to talk to 127.0.0.1? I believe you need to use the real hostname in you host file. I think that your two tests work because there is no interprocess communication, just stdout. On 08/08/11 23:4
