I get this on both the machines: root@ubuntu:/home/# getent hosts ubuntu 192.168.1.4 ubuntu root@ubuntu:/home/# getent hosts hesh 192.168.1.5 hesh root@ubuntu:/home/# which is expected- am I right?

Thanks a lot for your replies. I followed the instructions given here wiki.mpich.org/mpich/index.php/Using_the_Hydra_Process_Manager1

for running MPI program on multiple machines:

My master node is : 192.168.1.4 My client is: 192.168.1.6

You defined them both on both machines in /etc/hosts? What should give a valid reply is:

$ getent hosts ubuntu 192.168.1.4 ubuntu $ getent hosts hesh 192.168.1.6 hesh

resp. the on the other machine.

...

I gave the following command from 192.168.1.4

root@ubuntu:/home# mpiexec -f hosts.cfg -n 4 hello [email protected]'s password: [proxy:0:0@hesh] HYDU_sock_connect (./utils/sock/sock.c:171): unable to get host address for ubuntu (1) [proxy:0:0@hesh] main (./pm/pmiserv/pmip.c:209): unable to connect to server ubuntu at port 42104 (check for firewalls!)

Why I am getting there errors?

Both the machines have locally generated executable hello. Do I must have same executable copied in both machines?

On master node 192.168.1.4 root@ubuntu:/home# ls acme hello hosts.cfg mpi_hello.c

On client 192.168.1.6

root@hesh:/home#ls hesh hello

hello in each machine sis generated after compilation locally.

You do not need to use any special hardware adapter; any Ethernet card should provide sufficient TCP/IP support.

Hello,

You'll need to either install mpich on a shared file system (such as NFS) or individually on each of the nodes. The README file in the mpich tarball should have most of this information.

Hi,

I did some experimentation with MPICH on windows, and recently came to know that there is no support for Windows now. I am now shifting to Ubuntu. I was successful in installing MPICH2 and running my first MPI program on a single machine.

Now I want to run my code on multiple PCs. How do I install MPI in a LAN ? What are the additional requirement if any? Do I need any specific hardware -network adapter My card details are as under:

root@ubuntu:/home# lspci -nnk | grep -i net -A2 01:07.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ [10ec:8139] (rev 10) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:301d] Kernel driver in use: 8139too

Most of my machines are having this type of card and are connected in LAN. Really appreciate for any pointers to appropriate document or suggestions.

Thanks and regards,
