[maker-devel] FW: Maker jobs hanging

[Daniel Ence]

Hi Greg, 

You should be able to have the new MAKER work on the old datastore. Note the following advice from the main MAKER developer, Carson Holt. 

Thanks,
Daniel

Use 2.31.  It has been tested to work without issue on several thousand
cpus.  Also use OpenMPI for any jobs greater than 100 cpus. In addition,
OpenMPI can freeze on some systems without the following flag when using
perl based MPI programs --> -mca btl ^openib

Example --> mpiexec -mca btl ^openib -n 200 maker


Finally, never use MVAPICH2.  It doesn't play well with perl, and freezes
whenever perl based MPI jobs extend across nodes (they run fine within a
single node though).
