Thanks for the follow-up Phil, both the problem and the way that you tracked it down. Another good note for the Slurm Users' Toolkit!

Thanks everyone for your replies!

It turned out to be a library dependency for libevent wasn’t being found as needed.  While I thought I was using a shared-location library, I was not.  I had apparently set up /etc/ld.so.conf.d on the build host to use /usr/local/lib which… has libevent in it.  But none of the other nodes had this.  The problem became apparent after going to each node and running pmix_info.

This means I should remove the ld.so.conf.d entry and rebuild everything against the preferred set of libraries.  Otherwise pmix appears to work as expected now.

Cheers!

Make sure the .so symlink for the pmix lib is available -- not just the versioned .so, e.g. .so.2.  Slurm requires that .so symlink.  Some distros split packages into base/devel, so you may need to install a pmix-devel package, if available, in order to add the .so symlink (which is considered a "development" file).

Thanks Andy,

Slurm was compiled with --with-pmix=/share/local/pmix-3.2.1.  The build of pmix is installed under /share/local/pmix-3.2.1 which is an NFS share across all the nodes.  I should also note I used devtoolset-10 (gcc 10) on RHEL7 and confirmed that everything was compiled with that version of compiler.

I also set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include /share/local/pmix-3.2.1

Cheers!

Also, Slurm was built with "/fs/local/pmix-3.2.1" -- does that translate well to "/share/local/pmix-3.2.1"?

    Are you sure that /share/local/pmix-3.2.1 exists on the compute nodes?

        Hi everyone,

        I’ve been having difficulty getting the --mpi=pmix_v3 option
