Victor,

Just on a hunch, look in your BIOS to see if Hyperthreading is turned on. If so, turn it off. We have seen some unusual behavior on some of our machines unless this is disabled.

I am interested in your progress as I have just begun working with OpenMPI as well. I have used mpich for quite some time, but felt compelled to get some experience with OpenMPI as well. I just installed it this weekend on an AMD dual-core machine with 2 gigs of ram. Maybe I will try and replicate your experiment if you can direct me to what program you are benchmarking.

The problem is that my executable file runs on the

And on another Sun SMP machine with 20 processors it
runs perfectly (the problem is perfectly scallable).

It means that your OMPI was compiled to support
uDAPL  (a type of  
infinibad network)  but that your computer does not
have such a card  
installed.  Because you dont it will fall back to
ethernet.  But  
because you are just running on a single machine. 
You will use the  
fastest form of communication using shared memory. 
so you can ignore  
that message.  Unless in the future you add a uDAPL
powered network  
and you still get that message then you need to
worry.

Hello,

I have a Pentium D computer with Solaris 10

installed.

I installed OpenMPI, succesfully compiled my

Fortran

program, but when giving
mpirun -np 2 progexe
I receive
[0,1,0]: uDAPL on host SERVSOLARIS was unable to

find

any NICs.
Another transport will be used instead, although

this

may result in
lower performance.

I am a begginer in MPI and don't know what it

means.

What
 should I do to solve the problem?
Thank you.
