Hi,

When you have a process which crashes, all the processes of his COMM_WORLD
allso seem to crash.
What should you do to make a MPI-program "crash-resistent"; with which I
mean: make that not all the nodes crash when one goes down? (I'm not
speaking of synchronising the data between the nodes to avoid losses etc...)

Is there something about that in the MPI / MPI-2 standart?

Thanks a lot.

Jim
