Hello.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what signal 7 means? It caused my
program to halt during a call to the ScaLAPACK subroutine pdsytrd. I got
the following error message:

MPI_Recv: process in local group is dead (rank 1, comm 11)
Rank (2, MPI_COMM_WORLD): Call stack within LAM:
Rank (2, MPI_COMM_WORLD): - MPI_Recv()
Rank (2, MPI_COMM_WORLD): - MPI_Bcast()
Rank (2, MPI_COMM_WORLD): - main()
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the processes started by mpirun has exited with a nonzero exit
code. This typically indicates that the process finished in error.
If your process did not finish in error, be sure to include a "return
0" or "exit(0)" in your C code before exiting the application.

PID 6868 failed on node n3 (128.227.64.26) due to signal 7.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Killed

Thanks.

Take care,
