Here I send you a little test program:<br><br>- the manager.cpp file contains the manager part that initializes a Petsc Session, prints some informations about the command line options and then executes the "worker program" with MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple. The firts command line option of the master must the executable name of the worker.<br>
- the worker.cpp file prints informations about the command line options and exit.<br><br>I use MPICH-2 and Petsc 2.3.3 and the gcc 1.4.2 compiler.<br>
<br><br>To execute the program I type:<br><br>mpiexec -n 2 ./manager ./worker -arg1 1 -arg2 2 -arg3 3 -arg4 4 -arg5 5 -arg6 6 -arg7 7 -arg8 8 -arg9 9 -arg10 10 -arg11 11 -arg12 12 -arg13 13 -arg14 14 -arg15 15 -arg16 16 -arg17 17 -arg18 18 -arg19 19 -arg20 20 -arg21 21 -arg22 22 -arg23 23 -arg24 24 -arg25 25 -arg26 26 -arg27 27 -arg28 28 -arg29 29 -arg30 30 -arg31 31 -arg32 32 -arg33 33 -arg34 34 -arg35 35 -arg36 36<br>
<br>Stopping at -arg35 35 the program executes.<br><br>Thank you very much!<br>Federico <br><br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/1/9 Rajeev Thakur <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:thakur@mcs.anl.gov" target="_blank">thakur@mcs.anl.gov</a>></span><br>

<div></div>Hi,<br><br><br> I've
a problem in using the MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple.<br>When I use that
function with a large number of arguments in the array_of_argv
parameter<br>the program execution freezes in the point.<br><br>There is a
maximum length of the argv or a maximum number of elements of argv that
can be used?<br><br>Thank
you!<br>Federico<br></div></div></blockquote></div></blockquote></div><br></div></div></blockquote></div>
