The system should see that app fail and abort the job - whether it calls MPI_Init first or not is irrelevant.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a way to detect a situation than one of the
processes in an MPI application exits without even calling MPI_Init()? </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have a case in which all the processes except one are stuck
forever in MPI_Init(), and that one exits before being able to call MPI_Init()…</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I tried using the mca params that I thought might be related
- orte_startup_timeout, orte_abort_timeout, but that didn’t help. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks!</p>
