[mpich-discuss] Volatile nodes

[Rajeev Thakur]

Do you mean what happens if one of the nodes crashes? The current version of
MPICH2 will abort in that case, but within the next year we plan to have a
version that is more resilient to such failure; i.e., it won't abort, but
any attempt to communicate with that node will return an error.
