[mpich-discuss] Client hangs if server dies in dynamic process management

[Roy, Hirak]

Hi Huiwei,


1>    Did you start your nameserver ?

2>    Did the server program crash?
I see the same hang (incomplete MPI_Finalize in client).

Here is my command line:

Ø  hydra_namserver &

Ø  mpiexec -n 1 -nameserver <hostname> ./server

Ø  mpiexec -n 1 -nameserver <hostname> ./client

Could you try with the latest mpich-3.2a2?

The client exit successfully on my Macbook with sock channel.
