Hi,
with OpenMPI 1.6.3 I have encountered this error which "randomly" appears:
[compile:20089] opal_os_dirpath_create: Error: Unable to create the
sub-directory (/tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/55528/0) of
(/tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/55528/0/0), mkdir failed [1]
[compile:20089] [[55528,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Error in file
util/session_dir.c at line 106
(view full stderr attached)
and also this mostly same one:
[compile:22876] opal_os_dirpath_create: Error: Unable to create the
sub-directory (/tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/53197/0) of
(/tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/53197/0/0), mkdir failed [1]
...
Looking deeper, I have found this in /tmp:
ls -ladtr /tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib\@compile_0/* |grep -v "drwx"
-rw-r--r-- 1 cmpbib bib 93 Jan 31 06:47
/tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/55528

-rw-r--r-- 1 cmpbib bib 93 Feb 1 18:50
/tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/63980
So there are some *files* in /tmp which are named like the directories
which are tried to be created....
The content of the file /tmp/openmpi-sessions-cmpbib@compile_0/55528 is:
4016963584.0;tcp://10.1.1.46:51427;tcp://132.203.7.103:51427;tcp://192.168.122.1:51427
31231
which looks like the content of the file "contact.txt" which seems to
appear in a successfully created directory. Also, the files have been
created far before the executions which aborted...
So, is this a bug in 1.6.3 and is there a "solution" for that?
(I know I can cleanup the files, but I expect OpenMPI to not try to
create a directory if a file with the same name exists...)
Thanks,
Eric

data source: default value)
Path for MCA configuration files containing default
parameter values

value: <none>, data source: default value)
Aggregate MCA parameter file sets
MCA mca: parameter "mca_base_param_file_path" (current value:

source: default value)
Aggregate MCA parameter Search path
MCA mca: parameter "mca_base_param_file_path_force" (current

Forced Aggregate MCA parameter Search path
MCA mca: parameter "mca_component_path" (current value:
</opt/openmpi-1.6.3_rh6/lib/openmpi:/users/cmpbib/.openmpi/components>, data
source: default value)
Path where to look for Open MPI and ORTE components
MCA mca: parameter "mca_component_show_load_errors" (current
value: <1>, data source: default value)
Whether to show errors for components that failed to
load or not
MCA mca: parameter "mca_component_disable_dlopen" (current
value: <0>, data source: default value)
Whether to attempt to disable opening dynamic
components or not
MCA mca: parameter "mca_verbose" (current value: <stderr>,
data source: default value)
Specifies where the default error output stream goes
(this is separate from distinct help messages). Accepts a comma-delimited list
of: stderr, stdout, syslog, syslogpri:<notice|info|debug>, syslogid:<str>
(where str is the prefix string for all syslog notices), file[:filename] (if
filename is not specified, a default filename is used), fileappend (if not
specified, the file is opened for truncation), level[:N] (if specified, integer
verbose level; otherwise, 0 is implied)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_paffinity_alone" (current value: <0>,
data source: default value, synonym of: opal_paffinity_alone)
If nonzero, assume that this job is the only (set of)
process(es) running on each node and bind processes to processors, starting
with processor ID 0
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_param_check" (current value: <1>, data
source: default value)
Whether you want MPI API parameters checked at
run-time or not. Possible values are 0 (no checking) and 1 (perform checking
at run-time)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_yield_when_idle" (current value: <1>,
data source: environment or cmdline)
Yield the processor when waiting for MPI
communication (for MPI processes, will default to 1 when oversubscribing nodes)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_event_tick_rate" (current value: <-1>,
data source: default value)
How often to progress TCP communications (0 = never,
otherwise specified in microseconds)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_handle_leaks" (current value:
<0>, data source: default value)
Whether MPI_FINALIZE shows all MPI handles that were
not freed or not
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_no_free_handles" (current value: <0>,
data source: default value)
Whether to actually free MPI objects when their
handles are freed
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_mpi_alloc_mem_leaks" (current
value: <0>, data source: default value)
If >0, MPI_FINALIZE will show up to this many
instances of memory allocated by MPI_ALLOC_MEM that was not freed by
MPI_FREE_MEM
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_mca_params" (current value:
<none>, data source: default value)
Whether to show all MCA parameter values during
MPI_INIT or not (good for reproducability of MPI jobs for debug purposes).
Accepted values are all, default, file, api, and enviro - or a comma delimited
combination of them
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_show_mca_params_file" (current value:
<none>, data source: default value)
If mpi_show_mca_params is true, setting this string
to a valid filename tells Open MPI to dump all the MCA parameter values into a
file suitable for reading via the mca_param_files parameter (good for
reproducability of MPI jobs)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_keep_peer_hostnames" (current value:
<1>, data source: default value)
If nonzero, save the string hostnames of all MPI peer
processes (mostly for error / debugging output messages). This can add quite a
bit of memory usage to each MPI process.
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_abort_delay" (current value: <0>, data
source: default value)
If nonzero, print out an identifying message when
MPI_ABORT is invoked (hostname, PID of the process that called MPI_ABORT) and
delay for that many seconds before exiting (a negative delay value means to
never abort). This allows attaching of a debugger before quitting the job.
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_abort_print_stack" (current value:
<0>, data source: default value)
If nonzero, print out a stack trace when MPI_ABORT is
invoked
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_preconnect_mpi" (current value: <0>,
data source: default value, synonyms: mpi_preconnect_all)
Whether to force MPI processes to fully wire-up the
MPI connections between MPI processes during MPI_INIT (vs. making connections
lazily -- upon the first MPI traffic between each process peer pair)
MCA mpi: parameter "mpi_preconnect_all" (current value: <0>,
data source: default value, deprecated, synonym of: mpi_preconnect_mpi)
Whether to force MPI processes to fully wire-up the
MPI connections between MPI processes during MPI_INIT (vs. making connections
