[mpich-discuss] seek help on mpi- mpich

Wed Dec 1 10:17:29 CST 2010

Hi,
 Good to know your problem is solved. Although I am not sure what your question is, Are you referring to stdout from worker program being redirected (printfs from worker program appearing in the mpiexec cmd prompt ?) to mpiexec ?

Regards,
Jayesh

Subject: Re: seek help on mpi- mpich

Hello..Mr Jayesh.
I think I've solved my problem, although I am still confuse why the master
node still print the worker part in hello program. I can see the mpi
invocation in windows task manager when I run my neural net program via 2
nodes.
 I think I have done double setting which should be done in single. I've
configure the machine file and  also to host file in system32 (obtain it
from you or in forum).
Thank you so much for your help and support.

p.s would you help me when I am in a need in future :)?
