[mpich-discuss] MPICH2 Errors running MCNPX-SMPDU connect failed?

Mon May 7 11:50:25 CDT 2012

Hi,
 Some suggestions,

# Make sure that any firewall running on the machine is turned off
# In the step where Testcpi is run (c:\mcnp\mcnp5\bin>"C:\Program Files\MPICH2\bin\mpiexec.exe" -hosts 1 PBRFPNM1 20 C:\Documents and Settings\p0038192\Desktop\Testcpi ), try specifying a "number of intervals" other than 0 and see if it works.
# Try specifying the ipaddress of "PBRFPNM1" in the mpiexec command (instead of "PBRFPNM1").

 Let us know the results.

Regards,
Jayesh

Subject: [mpich-discuss] MPICH2 Errors running MCNPX-SMPDU connect failed?

I am in the process of trying to run a version of software that has is widely distributed and was compiled to be run with MPICH2. I have been running around in circles trying to figure out why I am not having success running the software with multiple processors and I though this group might be able to help me. Below are the results of a series of commands that I copied and pasted from the DOS window. Everything seems to be working as expected until I try to execute the MCNPX software. CPI examples ramps up to nearly 100% CPU usage. 

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling MPICH2, using an admin command prompt. SMPD and MPIEXEC.exe have been added as exceptions through the windows firewall although I am not sure how much windows is actually blocking because my company uses Trend MICRO Officescan and it has its own firewall. I have found that adding SMPD and MPIEXEC as exceptions through the windows firewall does not have an effect on the errors I am receiving. I am running low on ideas right now, and any help? 

Here are the results from the command prompt. Thanks in advanced!
