Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users File Descriptor redirection and duplication Post 302399959 by thillai_selvan on Tuesday 2nd of March 2010 03:12:44 AM

generally the errors will be printed to the stderr.
In the first case at first you are redirecting the output to logfile file directly.
At this stage both the stdout and stderr are redirect to the logfile.
Then only redirecting the stderr to stdout.

(0 for stdin, 1 for stdout and 2 for stderr)

In the second case you are redirecting the stderr to the stdout.
So the error message is getting printed in the stderr and the stdout is redirected to the logfile.
So the output is stored in the logfile.

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. SEE ALSO
