If I could venture a guess, it sounds like you are trying to merge two separate 
programs into one executable and run them in parallel 
via MPI.

The problem sounds like an issue where your program starts in parallel but then 
changes back to serial while the program is still 
executing.

I can't be entirely sure without looking at the code itself.

One guess is that MPI_Finalize is in the wrong location. Finalize should be 
called to end the parallel section and move the program 
back to serial. Typically this means that Finalize will be very close to the 
last line of the program.

It may also be possible that with the way your program is structured, the 
effect is effectively serial since only one core is 
processing at any given moment. This may be due to extensive use of barrier or 
similar functions.

I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you are saying, so let's see if I can 
clarify. You have two fortran MPI programs. You start 
one using "mpiexec". You then start the other one as a singleton - i.e., you 
just run "myapp" without using mpiexec. The two apps are 
attempting to execute an MPI_Connect/accept so they can "join".

Is that correct? You mention MPICH in your statement about one of the procs - 
are you using MPICH or Open MPI? If the latter, which 
version are you using?

        Dear All,
        Take my greetings. I am new in mpi usage. I have problems in parallel 
run, when two fortran mpi programs are merged to one 
executable. If these two are separate, then they are running parallel.

        One program has used spmd and another one  has used mpich header 
directly.

        Other issue is that while trying to run the above mentioned merged 
program in mpi, it's first started with separate parallel 
instances of same step and then after some steps it becomes serial.

        Please help me in this regards
