<p class="MsoNormal">Now I did troubleshoot this to be due to the fact that on the machines other than the one I am running mpiexec from do not have a proper LD_LIBRARY_PATH set.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Shouldn’t that get passed to the ‘children’ when I do an mpiexec?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We use modules and have different compilers here, so folks need to load the appropriate module to access the appropriate libraries. In this case, the application was compiled using the intel compiler, so the environment gets set using:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">module load compile/intel mpi/mpich2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To get the application to run via mpich2 on multiple nodes, I have had to add that line to the .bashrc<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have tried using the various genv and env options (genvall, envall, envlist, genvlist) to no avail. The only way I was able to successfully run was to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in my .bashrc.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Am I missing something about the environment settings when using mpiexec or mpirun?<o:p></o:p></p>
