[mpich-discuss] MPICH configure

Hi,

I’ve been building MPICH on are aging Infiniband cluster using the following formula


./configure --prefix=/people/d3g293/mpich/mpich-3.3.2/install --with-device=ch4:ofi:sockets --with-libfabric=embedded --enable-threads=multiple --with-slurm CC=gcc CXX=g++

It’s been working pretty well but I recently tried to build mpich-3.3.2 and mpich-3.4a2 and although the build seems to work okay, I’m having problems actually running anything. If I run on 2 nodes the code seems to hang on MPI_Init and it looks like it is producing the error message


[proxy:0:1 at node013.local] HYDU_sock_connect (utils/sock/sock.c:145): unable to connect from "node013.l

ocal" to "node012.local" (Connection refused)

[proxy:0:1 at node013.local] main (pm/pmiserv/pmip.c:183): unable to connect to server node012.local at p

ort 37769 (check for firewalls!)

srun: error: node013: task 1: Exited with exit code 5

If I run on a single node, things seem to work. Any idea what is going on here? I’ve got a working build of mpich-3.3, so things were okay up until recently. Has something in MPICH changed and my configuration formula is no good, or is this more likely to be due to some system modification?
