Can you tell us more information about your version of MPICH and provide a small example code that can reproduce the error you are getting? On 04/10/2014 01:00 PM, Jackey Yan wrote:
Hi everyone,
In MPICH, do I have to use mpiexec in the command line, in order to launch a MPI run?
I know that in MPI-2 standard, it supports the “dynamic process” feature, i.e., dynamically generate/spawn processes from existing singleton process.
So it is not required to use mpiexec/mpirun in the command line, in order to launch a singleton MPI.
But, I tried to run without mpiexec in MPICH, but it error out when parsing the arguments in Hydra…
Thanks,
Jackey
