Matt,

Which version of Scyld is that? I just tried it out on 30cz1 and CW4 and neither had an issue, however that little mpihello.c might not have been representative of what your application does... Did you engage
Support?

Hi,

i hope this is the right mailing list to post to...

Anyway, i was wondering if i could get some advice/direction on how to debug my mpich program. I am running on a scyld configuration. What i am trying right now is the following:

mpirun -dbg=gdb -nolocal -np 32 exec

which starts the debugger in which i go
run args

which then start the program. However, it doesn't get very far until it just sits there. When i ps all the processes are defunced.

When i do the same thing except mpirun -dbg=gdb -nolocal -np 1 exec
and run it in the debugger, the program starts running well.

The reason i want to run on 32 processor though, is that it takes (on 32 procs) several hours till my program crashes. Also, i would like to be able to keep the conditions under which it crashes intact as much as possible (i.e. run on 32 procs rather than 1).

Does anyone have any advice? I am open to try out other things as well if possible. I am just starting to learn debugger techniques for a parallel program.

thanks
mat
