 So did you try running cpi by specifying ipaddresses ? Also let us know
whether the "-machinefile" option works for you (make sure that you
specify ipaddresses of the machines in your machine file).

I can run cpi on both remote computers with -hosts 1, but not two
computers at same time. But from one remote I have to use ipaddress to
start remote process.

 

I turned off firewall completely, still the same problem.

 

I found the cpi.exe processes are already started in both computers
(remote and local).

1) Did you try executing cpi.exe remotely from both the machines (mpiexec
-hosts 1 remotecomputer... from both the machines)?

2) Do you have any windows firewall or third party firewall running on
your machine (turn it off if its running)?

3) Try specifying the ipaddresses of machines (Due to DNS config issues
one host may not be able to resolve the other hosts name) instead of
hostnames.

Jayesh

running vista and the other one is windows server 2008. I will try

Hi,

 Did you recently upgrade to the latest version of MPICH2 (1.0.8)?

 

(PS: I just verified that I can run cpi across two Win XP machines using a
machinefile or the "-hosts" option.)

Regards,

Jayesh

I am setting up mpich2 on two windows computers. I created same
user/password on both computers and use mpiexec -register to register
user/password. I could run the sample program cpi.exe in local and remote
computer through

 

mpiexec -hosts 1 localcomputer 2 c:\samples\cpi.exe

mpiexec -hosts 1 remotecomputer 2 c:\samples\cpi.exe

 

but I cannot run the sample on both computer at once

 

mpiexec -hosts 2 localcomputer 2 remotecomputer 2 c:\samples\cpi.exe

 

mpiexec will hang after the interval.
