Hi Ken,

yes. I often make the same experience - as soon as one explaines a problem to somebody else, one finds the answer.  You can call that "passive" help by the listener :)

Hope you have a good and - now relaxed - weekend!

Ursula

Ursula,

No worries, just glad I could get it to work. Sometimes it just takes someone to help think differently :)

Thanks again.

Ken

Disabling a potential error source for trial and error is always a good thing to isolate a problem.

However, at one point I got the following error:
[proxy:0:1 at Pi02] launch_procs (/home/pi/mpich2/mpich-3.1/src/pm/hydra/pm/pmiserv/pmip_cb.c:641): unable to change wdir to /home/pi/mpi_test (No such file or directory)

So I scratched my head and wondered if it was something as silly as the fact that I was calling mpiexec from a directory that existed on Pi01 and not on the other three. I quickly created the same directory on the other three Pis and bam:

pi at Pi01 ~/mpi_test $ mpiexec -f machinefile -n 4 hostname
Pi01
Pi04
Pi03
Pi02

Was it really that simple?

Thanks.

Ken

Yes, That *IS* possible ! :)   As you mention it now - I had the same problem some years ago. Unfortunately I didn't remember in time sparing you from dealing with  the same trouble.
