[mpich-discuss] client server application on windows7

[Jayesh Krishna]

Hi,
 Please install MPICH2 on all the machines/nodes where your job (MPI processes) is launched and run your job (Specify the list of nodes using a machine file - See Windows developers guide,http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/documentation/index.php?s=docs, for details).

Regards,
Jayesh

Hi Jayesh, 
thanks for your answer, but the problem is my application will be used in a cluster so the client and the server won't be on the same pc. so, i'm wondering if there is another implmentation of MPI that support this functionnality?

> The process manager with MPICH2 on Windows (SMPD) does not support publish/lookup across different jobs. You will have to publish/lookup the port name yourself (Write port string from MPI_Open_port() to a text file and read it etc.).

> I am trying to build a simple client/server application on windows 7 using Visual Studio where the server and the client are run by two different mpiexec and it worked well, but when i introduced mpi_publish_name and mpi_lookup_name the client couldn't find the port associated with the name service, knowing that these tow functions work well when they are in the same programme, i thought that maybe there is a kind of scope for those functions.
