Sorry for the miscommunication: The processes are started by my program with MPI_Comm_spawn, so there was no mpirun involved.
If you can suggest a test program I can use with mpirun to validate my openmpi environment and install, that would probably produce the output you would like to see. But I'm not sure that will make it clear how the file pointed to by "orte_launch_agent" in "mca-params.conf" should be written to setup an environment and start orted.
