4–Running <strong>QLogic</strong> MPI on <strong>QLogic</strong> Adapters<br />

<strong>QLogic</strong> MPI Limitations<br />

• Several misconfigurations (such as mixed use of 32-bit/64-bit executables)<br />

are detected by the runtime.<br />

• A formatted list containing information useful for high-level MPI application<br />

profiling is provided by using the -print-stats option with mpirun.<br />

Statistics include minimum, maximum, and median values for message<br />

transmission protocols as well as a more detailed information for expected<br />

and unexpected message reception. See “MPI Stats” on page F-30 for more<br />

information and a sample output listing.<br />

NOTE:<br />

The TotalView ® debugger can be used with the Open MPI supplied in this<br />

release. Consult the TotalView documentation for more information.<br />

<strong>QLogic</strong> MPI Limitations<br />

The current version of <strong>QLogic</strong> MPI has the following limitations:<br />

• There are no C++ bindings to MPI; use the extern C MPI function calls.<br />

• In MPI-IO file I/O calls in the Fortran binding, offset, or displacement<br />

arguments are limited to 32 bits. Thus, for example, the second argument of<br />

MPI_File_seek must be between -2 31 and 2 31 -1, and the argument to<br />

MPI_File_read_at must be between 0 and 2 32 -1.<br />
