Hi ,

I met with a basic problem trying to get old mpich(3.0.4) version to do parallel run across different machines in a mini-cluster. The error messages

while invoking the mpiruns are :

*****************error messages********************

[limtba@fdns00_ws testenv-testlib]$ ./mpi-script

[limtba@fdns00_ws testenv-testlib]$ more log.aout

what does your machine file look like? it sounds like you've got something in there that Hydra does not expect. ==rob

*****************error messages********************

This old version was downloaded from WRF site (http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php#STEP2) , and was built

with essentially, all the default configuration settings without any options arguments given in the configure/make/make-install process, as :

Ø./configure –prefix=$DIR/mpich

Ømake

Ømake install

There are no error messages during the built process, and the mpirun works fine for parallel runs, using multiple processors, on a single NODE only

but met with the above error messages when attempting parallel run across multiple machines.

I need some advice as to how get this old mpich 3.0.4 working across machines. The OS for these machines are Centos5.5, with gcc4.1.2 and

gcc4.4.7 installations. As WRF needs gcc4.4 and higher version, I have built the mpich3.04 using gcc4.4.7.

Would appreciate any help and advices…

Many Thanks.
