[mpich-discuss] Spawning using a hostfile

Hello,

For my project, I need to spawn processes on hosts specified by a
hostfile/machinefile. I am trying to specify it using the info option. As I
see it, 1.3.1 does not support this yet (If yes, how?). Will this feature be
available any time soon? Either way, it would help me to know how the
implementation will rank the processes. In the sense, will the processes be
ranked in the order of hosts specified in the hostfile or by some other
mechanism?

Thanks,
Suraj Prabhakaran
