Are you able to upgrade to Open MPI v1.2.7?
There were *many* bug fixes and changes in the 1.2 series compared to
the 1.1 series, some, in particular, were dealing with TCP socket
timeouts (which are important when dealing with large numbers of MPI
processes).

Hi,
I am trying to run a test mpiHelloWorld program that simply
initializes the MPI environment on all the nodes, prints the
hostname and rank of each node in the MPI process group and exits.
I am using MPI 1.1.2 and am running 997 processes on 499 nodes
(Nodes have 2 dual core CPUs).
I get the following error messages when I run my program as follows:
mpirun -np 997 -bynode -hostfile nodelist /main/mpiHelloWorld

The main thing is that I get these error messages around 3-4 times
out of 10 attempts with the rest all completing successfully. I have
looked into the FAQs in detail and also checked the tcp btl settings
but am not able to figure it out.
All the 499 nodes have only eth0 active and I get the error even
when I run the following: mpirun -np 997 -bynode –hostfile nodelist
--mca btl_tcp_if_include eth0 /main/mpiHelloWorld
I have attached the output of ompi_info —all.
The following is the output of /sbin/ifconfig on the node where I
start the mpi process (it is one of the 499 nodes)
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:03:25:44:8F:D6

Kindly help.
