[Beowulf] Simple MPI programs hang

[Gregg Germain]

Hi everyone,

I've created a 2 node cluster running FC8.  I've installed MPICH2 
1.0.6pl on both (not NFS'd).

The Master, Ragnar, is a 64 bit; olaf is a 32 bit.

I set up the ring, and mpdtrace shows:

$ mpdtrace -l
Ragnar_37601 (192.168.0.2)
olaf_45530 (192.168.0.5)
$

I run a VERY simple MPI program and it hangs:
#include "mpi.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <string.h>

int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
   MPI_Init(&argc,&argv);
   printf("Hello!\n");
   MPI_Finalize();
   return 0;
}

The program outputs the two lines for the two nodes and hangs. I have to 
CNTRL-C out of it:

[gregg at Ragnar ~/BEOAPPS]$ mpiexec -l -n 2 mpibase
0: Hello!
1: Hello!

It would sit there forever if I didn't bail. Other simple tests work fine:

Running a simple "hostname" test works fine:

$ mpiexec -l -n 2 hostname
0: Ragnar
1: olaf
$

Now I run a Hello World (no MPI):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

int main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
   printf("\nHello World!\n %d \n", n);
}

$ mpiexec -l -n 2 ../HelloWorld
0:
0: Hello World!
1:
1: Hello World!
$

Any help with this would be appreciated

Gregg
