[MPICH] RE: MPICH2 - can you send us your mpi pgm ?

[Jayesh Krishna]

Hi,
 The latest version of MPICH2 does not include the changes for
singleton-init. The changes are slated for a future release.
 
(Note: Meanwhile we are also in the process of implementing a new process
manager which would outdate smpd. It should be out sometime next year.)
 
Regards,
Jayesh

Jayesh,
 
I was trying to find out if the singleton init (non-MPI process calling
MPI_Init() and transforming into an MPI process) has been implemented in the
new versions. 
 
Thanks

Hi,
  Currently the support for singleton init (a non-MPI process calling
MPI_Init() and transforming into an MPI process) is limited in windows. We
are in the process of implementing the extended PMI wire protocol which
would enable users to use functions like MPI_Comm_spawn() from a singleton
MPI process.
 
Regards,
Jayesh

The Application actually creates a dll that dynamically links to a 3rd party
application.
 
The MPI calls ( MPI SPAWN) work perfectly fine when we launch using mpiexec
instead of calling MPI_INIT inside the code.
 
After calling MPI_Init the only other MPI calls made are
 
 
MPI_INIT(NULL,NULL)
....
....
MPI_Status stat;

MPI_Info spawn_info;

MPI_Comm_rank( MPI_COMM_WORLD, &my_rank );

MPI_Comm_size( MPI_COMM_WORLD, &num_proc );

CString csCommandLine, csFile;

csCommandLine.Format ( "\"%s\\submodel.bat\" \"%s\" \"%s\" \"-v %s
-network_init -mpi_init -noprompt\" \"%s\"",

GetApp()->GetLoadAppPath(),

.......

.......

MPI_Info_create( &spawn_info );

if ( !obCaseDetails.sMachine.IsEmpty() ) 

{

MPI_Info_set( spawn_info, "host", strHost );

}

MPI_Info_set( spawn_info, "path", strPath );

MPI_Info_set( spawn_info, "wdir", strWdir );

MPI_Info_set( spawn_info, "file", strFile );

ierr = MPI_Comm_spawn( slave, MPI_ARGV_NULL, 1, spawn_info, my_rank,

MPI_COMM_WORLD, &comm_child, MPI_ERRCODES_IGNORE );

MPI_Info_free( &spawn_info );

Thanks

Hi,
 Can you send us your sample MPI program ?

Jayesh, 

Is there a way to start MPI process in the application using MPI_INIT()
rather than start it automatically by launch using "mpiexec" command.

I read in the "Using MPI-2" book that MPI_init could be called, but when I
tried it instead of using mpiexec, it did not work. 

It got hung when I was trying to spawn another process (MPI_COMM_SPAWN). 

Any suggestions would be appreciated. 

Thanks
