Redirecting stderr problem
Code:
% ls -ld /usr /foo
ls: /foo: No such file or directory
drwxr-xr-x  14 root  wheel  512 May 18 02:49 /usr
% ls -ld /usr /foo 1>/dev/null/
/dev/null/: Not a directory.
% ls -ld /usr /foo 2>/dev/null/
/dev/null/: Not a directory.


^^Why why why doesn't this work for me. Furthermore, where is stdout on the last?

I'm trying to prevent 'find' from barfing the permission denied errors if anybody has experienced that. Wondering if I'm doing something wrong or how to further examine stderr's config on the server.

Side note: Please forgive if this answer is already posted as I've tried searching here and google with no luck. Thanks in advance for your 0.Smilie

orte-iof

OMPI-IOF(1)							     Open MPI							       OMPI-IOF(1)

NAME

       ompi-iof, orte-iof - Displays a copy of the output streams from a process.

       NOTE: ompi-iof, and orte-iof are exact synonyms for each other. Using any of the names will result in exactly identical behavior.

SYNOPSIS

       ompi-iof [ options ]

Options
       ompi-iof will display a copy of the indicated stdout, stderr, and/or stddiag streams from the designated process.

       -pid | --pid
		 The pid of the mpirun executing the process whose streams are to be copied

       -stdout | --stdout
		 Display a copy of the specified process' stdout. If no options are specified, this will act as the default

       -stderr | --stderr
		 Display a copy of the specified process' stderr.

       -stddiag | --stddiag
		 Display a copy of the specified process' stddiag.

       -rank | --rank
		 The rank of the process whose output is to be copied.

DESCRIPTION

       ompi-iof  displays  a copy of the indicated stdout, stderr, and/or stddiag streams from the designated process. At this time, a ctrl-C must
       be used to terminate the program.  The program will terminate cleanly, telling the associated mpirun to close the requested streams  before
       exiting.
