Programming

I am new in Linux and clustering. I am setting up a Beowulf Cluster using several PCs according to this guide "Beowulf How-To"

I have setup and configure accordingly except for NFS part. Because I am not requiring it for my application. I have set my ssh to login each other without password. I started with 2 nodes 1st. I can compile and run in my headnode using openmpi. But when I try to run my MPI application across nodes, there is nothing displaying. It just like hanging there.

Headnode: master
client: slave4

The command I used to mpirun across nodes is as below:

Code:

mpirun -np 4 --host slave4 output

Since I not using NFS, so I installed OpenMPI in every nodes with same locations.

I wondering I missed out any configurations or not.

Hope someone can help me out of this problem.

Thanks in advance.

Were there test or sample apps built when you built OpenMPI ? Do they run?
