1 In the 'bin' directory containing mpif90, the following command shows ifort is used. $./mpif90 -v mpifort for MPICH version 3.1.2 ifort version 14.0.3 2 ifort -mcmodel=medium won't work. Since large array could not work with mpich in my computer, I downloaded openmpi and now it is working fine. The parallel code being modified from the serial version is now working.

Is this because MPICH can't spawn processes except through PMI/Hydra/whatever and you - justifiably - do not want to implement a special case workaround using execvp() directly?

This is a known issue with MPICH.

proper way to detect if program launched by mpiexec?

new tutorial books on MPI
by Rajeev Thakur 13 Oct '14

Since many of you are interested in MPI, I wanted to bring to your attention two new tutorial books on MPI: 1. Using MPI: Portable Parallel Programming with the Message-Passing Interface, 3rd edition by William Gropp, Ewing Lusk, and Anthony Skjellum This is an updated version of their earlier book, and covers basic MPI. http://www.amazon.com/Using-MPI-Programming-Message-Passing-Engineering/dp/… 2. Using Advanced MPI: Modern Features of the Message-Passing Interface by William Gropp, Torsten Hoefler, Rajeev Thakur, and Ewing Lusk This is a new book on advanced features of MPI, including the new features in MPI-3. http://www.amazon.com/Using-Advanced-MPI-Message-Passing-Engineering/dp/026… Rajeev
