Mpi IPoIB

Jump to: navigation, search

To use (Open)MPI over the IPoIB transport (faster than Ethernet, easier to use than RDMA) create a hostfile as follows:


 172.16.4.11 slots=8
 172.16.4.10 slots=8

Then run as you normally would (for Paraview)

 mpirun --prefix /usr/local/openmpi/1.4.2-gnu -np 16 --hostfile hostfile-ib -x PATH -x LD_LIBRARY_PATH -x DISPLAY=":0" pvserver -rc -ch=portal0 -sp=5555
