Dear Group,
I recently sent an email message to the mpich help address
and the response I got back was rather unsatisfactory. Basically
they told me to RTFM. Considering that I had attached several
pages of MPICH debug information that (I think) showed a problem
I was not satisfied with thier response. I would greatly appreciate
any help/suggestion anyone on the list can provide. To view a complete
description of the problem and the mpich debug information please see
the attached file.
Thanks,
Jeff White

To whom it may concern,
I am trying to figure out how to use the -p4pg option in mpirun and I
am experiencing some difficulties.
My cluster configuration is as follows:
node0 :
machine : Dual processor Supermicro Super 370DLE
cpu : 1 GHz Pentium 3
O.S. : Redhat Linux 7.1
kernel : 2.4.2-2smp
mpich : 1.2.1
nodes1->18 :
machine : Compaq xp1000
cpu : 667 MHz DEC alpha 21264
O.S. : Redhat Linux 7.0
kernel : 2.4.2
mpich : 1.2.1
nodes 19->34 :
machine : Microway Screamer
cpu : 667 MHz DEC alpha 21164
O.S. : Redhat Linux 7.0
kernel : 2.4.2
mpich : 1.2.1
The heterogeneous nature of the machine has made me migrate from using
the -machinefile option to the -p4pg option. I have been
trying to get a 2 processor job to run while submitting the mpirun
command from node0 (-nolocal is specified) and using either nodes 1
and 2 or nodes 2 and 3. If I use the -machinefile approach I am able to
run on any homogeneous combination of nodes. However, if I use the -p4pg
approach I have not been able to run unless my mpi master
node is node1. As long as node1 is the mpi master node then I can use
any one of nodes 2 through 18 as the 2nd processor. THe following 4 runs
illustrates what I have gotten to work as well as what doesn't work
(and the subsequent error message). Runs 1, 2 and 3 worked and run 4 failed.
1) When submitting from node0 using the -machinefile option to run on
nodes 1 and 2 using mpirun configured as:

and the following error message is generated
rm_10957: p4_error: rm_start: net_conn_to_listener failed: 34133
It appear that in case 4 even though I have requested node2 and node3 be used that a process is
being rhsh'd to node1 instead. The log message from node3 indicates it expects to connect
to node2 (partial proof that really did request node2) but since there is no process on
node2 an error occurs.

P4 procgroup file is /home0/jawhite/Vulcan/DEC_21264/Ver_4.3/Sample_cases/vulcan.hosts.
The result from cat /usr/local/pkgs/mpich_1.2.1/share/machines.LINUX is
mpi1
mpi2

mpi8
mpi9

mpi11
mpi12

mpi14
mpi15

however our /etc/hosts file contains entries to
mpi1 node1
mpi2 node2
so using the p4pg file vulcan.hosts containing:
node2 0 /home0/jawhite/Vulcan/DEC_21264/Ver_4.3/Executable/VULCAN_solver
node3 1 /home0/jawhite/Vulcan/DEC_21264/Ver_4.3/Executable/VULCAN_solver
or
mpi2 0 /home0/jawhite/Vulcan/DEC_21264/Ver_4.3/Executable/VULCAN_solver
mpi3 1 /home0/jawhite/Vulcan/DEC_21264/Ver_4.3/Executable/VULCAN_solver
both produce the same result/error message.
Removing mpi1 from the machines.LINUX file seems to fix the problem by shifting the
master process to mpi2/node2. But I suspect that if I requested nodes 3 and 4 the
error would happen again. I had hoped that using the p4pg file would have allowed
me to pick any node as my master node.
