[mpich-discuss] MPICH_PORT_RANGE

[hatem Elshazly]

hey there,



im using mpich2 with mpd as process manager.

i tried to set a port range so as to limit the ports that mpd uses.

i set the MPICH_PORT_RANGE=8000:9000 as an environment variable but this
 applies only on the machine im booting the mpd ring from, as like this:

node1

node2



if i boot the ring form node1 

node1 takes port 8000

node2 takes ANY_RANDOM_PORT not specified in the range

and of course vice versa



thank u very much
