D.
Try to omit the hostfile from your mpirun command line,
put it inside a Torque/PBS script, and submit it with qsub.
Like this:
*********************************
myPBSScript.tcsh
*********************************
#! /bin/tcsh
#PBS -l nodes=2:ppn=8 [Assuming your Torque 'nodes' file has np=8]
#PBS -q batch@mycluster.mydomain
#PBS -N hello
@ NP = `cat $PBS_NODEFILE | wc -l`
mpirun -np ${NP} ./mpihello
*********************************
$ qsub myPBSScript.tcsh
If OpenMPI was built with Torque support,
the job will run on the nodes/processors allocated by Torque.
[The nodes/processors are listed in $PBS_NODEFILE,
but you don't need to refer to it in the mpirun line if
OpenMPI was built with Torque support. If OpenMPI lacks
Torque support, then you can use $PBS_NODEFILE as your hostfile:
mpirun -hostfile $PBS_NODEFILE.]
If Torque was installed in a standard place, say under /usr,
then OpenMPI configure will pick it up automatically.
If not in a standard location, then add
--with-tm=/torque/directory
to the OpenMPI configure line.
[./configure --help is your friend!]
Another check:
$ ompi_info [tons of output that you can grep for "tm" to see
if Torque was picked up.]
I hope this helps,
