Thanks Howard. I don't find the env var changes the behavior. I'm using PBS Pro.

I'm not sure if any Open MPI developers have access any longer to Cray XC systems, so all I can do is make suggestions. What's probably happening is orte is thinking it is going to fork off the application processes on the head node itself. That isn't going to work for XC aries network. I'm not sure what would have changed between the orte in 4.0.x and 4.1.x to cause this difference but could you set the following ORTE MCA parameter and see if this problem goes away? export ORTE_MCA_ras_base_launch_orted_on_hn=1 What batch scheduler is your system using?

The newer ones throw this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- An ORTE daemon has unexpectedly failed after launch and before communicating back to mpirun.
