Subject: [mpich-discuss] Run mpich on localhost
 
Hello,
I installed mpich-3.0.4 on a x86_64 BSD machine. I need to run MPI on this single machine, which has 8 cores. When I run the cpi example, I get:
 
marto@% mpiexec -n 3 mpich-3.0.4/examples/cpi
ssh: Could not resolve hostname : hostname nor servname provided, or not known
 

Also, how did you configure MPICH?  What is your hostname (uname -n), and what is in /etc/hosts?
