Hi Nick,

I will endeavor to put together a wiki for the master/v2.x series specific
to Cray systems
(sans those customers who choose to neither 1) use Cray supported eslogin
setup nor 2)  permit users to directly log in to and build apps on service
nodes)  that explains best practices for
using Open MPI on Cray XE/XK/XC systems.

A significant  amount of work went in to master, and now the v2.x release
stream to rationalize support for Open MPI on Cray XE/XK/XC systems using
either aprun
or native slurm launch.

General advice for all on this mailing list, do not use the Open MPI 1.8.X
release
series with direct ugni access enabled on Cray XE/XK/XC .  Rather use
master, or as soon as
a release is available, from v2.x.   Note that if you are using CCM,  the
performance
of Open MPI 1.8.X over the Cray IAA (simulated ibverbs) is pretty good.  I
suggest this
as the preferred route for using the 1.8.X release stream on Cray XE/XK/XC.
