Glad to help.

MTT currently assumes that the scratch area is shared across all
nodes where that instance of MTT is running (e.g., a network share
folder such as NFS). We have some trac tickets open to support non-
uniform-shared setups (e.g., heterogeneous architectures where a
single shared folder will not be sufficient), but no work has
progressed on that front yet.

Hah! :-)
MTT doesn't transparently install MPI on multiple machines -- it
installs it once in the scratch directory and then assumes that the
same scratch tree is available on all nodes.
