Hi Christian
What is the content of your file
/mirror/mpich-1.2.7p1/share/machines.LINUX?
Please send it on your next message, it may clarify.
It looks like to me that your program is working correctly.
(I am guessing a bit, because you didn't send the source code.)
When you did "mpirun -np 1 canon"
it ran one process on cluster3:
See:
>>> Process 0 of 1 on cluster3
>>> Total Time: 4.316000 msecs
When you did "mpirun -np 4 canon"
it ran two processes on cluster1, and one in cluster2 and cluster3.
See:
>>> Process 0 of 4 on cluster3
>>> Total Time: 21.552000 msecs
>>> Process 2 of 4 on cluster2
>>> Process 1 of 4 on cluster1
>>> Process 3 of 4 on cluster1
Did you expect more output than this?
Did you expect a different output?
Did you expect it to use a different set of computers?
Anyway, you would be better off upgrading to OpenMPI or MPICH2.
The README file in the OpenMPI tarball has all information you
need to install it.
Chances are that MPICH1 will break in more complicated programs.
And remember not to run user-level programs as root.
That's not really safe.
I hope this helps.

Hi Christian
Somehow your program was not attached to the message.
In any case, you didn't say anything about your "machinefile" contents.
You need to list the nodes you want to use there.
The command line will be something like this:
mpirun -np 4 -machinefile my_machinefile canon
"man mpirun" may help you with the details.
(I assume you are using the mpirun that comes with mpich1.)
Having said that, I suggest that you move from MPICH-1 to
OpenMPI or to MPICH2.
MPICH-1 (mpich-1.2.7p1) is old, not maintained or supported anymore,
and often times breaks in current Linux kernels.
The MPICH developers also recommend upgrading to MPICH2.
OpenMPI and MPICH2 are free, easy to install, stable, up to date,
and more efficient than MPICH1.
Upgrading to one of them is likely to avoid more trouble later,
specially with your tight deadline.

I hope this helps,
