All,
I am trying to use LAM on a 64-bit Linux cluster running RedHat
2.4.21. I find that the version of LAM that comes bundled with
the operating system does not function properly, specifically the
applications always hang in the method MPI_Init.
I tried downloading LAM and building it myself, and it works OK,
so I am confident that it is not an application error. The
code is very simple, basically a Hello World.
I'm guessing that this is some kind of a library problem, but
it seems that other people must have seen it too.
The output from the command "lamboot -V" is as follows:
LAM 6.5.9/MPI 2 C++ - Indiana University
Arch: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
RPI: usysv
The output from the command "uname -a" is as follows:
Linux a1 2.4.21-27.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Dec 1 21:53:57 EST 2004 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux
I need to solve this problem, rather then working around it
by building my own version of LAM, because our customers
will be using the pre-installed version of LAM.
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Dave Diller
