Subject: Re: [OMPI users] Mpirun 1.5.4 problems when request > 28 slots

I'm unaware of any CentOS-OMPI bug, and I've been using CentOS throughout the 
6.x series running OMPI 1.6.x and above.

I can't speak to the older versions of CentOS and/or the older versions of OMPI.

Yes there is a second HPC Sun Grid Engine cluster on which I've run
this openMPI test code dozens of times on upwards of 400 slots
through SGE using qsub and qrsh, but this was using a much
older version of openMPI (1.3.3 I believe). On that particular cluster the
open files hard and soft limits were an issue.

I have noticed that there has been a new (as of July 2014) CentOS openMPI bug 
that
occurs when CentOS is upgraded from 6.2 to 6.3. I'm not sure if that
bug applies to this situation though.

This particular problem occurs whether or not I submit jobs through SGE (via 
qrsh
or qsub) or outside of SGE which leads me to believe it is an openMPI and/or 
CentOS
issue.

Not for this test case size. You should be just fine with the default values.

If I understand you correctly, you've run this app at scale before on another 
cluster without problem?

Ralph,

It's hard to imagine it's the openMPI code because I've tested this code
extensively on another cluster with 400 nodes and never had any problems.
But I'll try using the hello_c example in any case. Is it still recommended to
raise the open files soft and hard limits to 4096? Or should even larger values
be necessary?

Thank you for your help.

That's a pretty old OMPI version, and we don't really support it any longer. 
However, I can provide some advice:

* have you tried running the simple "hello_c" example we provide? This would at 
least tell you if the problem is in your app, which is what I'd expect given 
your description

* try using gdb (or pick your debugger) to look at the corefile and see where 
it is failing

I'd also suggest updating OMPI to the 1.6.5 or 1.8.1 versions, but I doubt 
that's the issue behind this problem.

I'm getting consistent errors of the form:

"mpirun noticed that process rank 3 with PID 802 on node csclprd3-0-8 exited on 
signal 11 (Segmentation fault)."

whenever I request more than 28 slots. These
errors even occur when I run mpirun locally
on a compute node that has 32 slots (8 cores, 16 with hyperthreading).

When I run less than 28 slots I have no problems whatsoever.
