Thank you sir,
one more thing i am confused about, suppose i have 2 run a 'pi' program using open mpi, where do i place the program?

currently i have placed it in /tmp folder on de master node. this /tmp folder is mounted on /mnt/nfs of the compute node.

i run de progam from the tmp folder on de master node, is this correct?

i m a newbie n really need some help, thanks in advance

Log into the second node before you start the program.
Run 'top'
Seriously - top is a very, very useful utility.
