Hi Joe, I wrote an email earlier for another thread where I described some of the problems I ran into. In short I was complaining about: 1)mpiformatdb creating 21 database fragments when I tell it to create 20, or 19 when I tell it to create 18... ie)n0 to n20 when I ask for just 20 2)The (null).pal file in my shared storage directory (created by mpiformatdb). I think the file is also incorrect since it contains a line like this: DBLIST (null).00 (null).01 ... (null).20 3)The misleading name of mpiformatdb which doesn't actually have an MPI library calls (I grepped for MPI_). This is just a pet peeve because I was upset at how long the format took. :) Right now I have it running, but with it doesn't produce any output and lamclean hasn't killed the process on the first node (it has been trying for >5 minute now). Speaking of the first node, are we supposed to set up n0 as our master node? Is that why I get 21 fragments when I say divide it into 20 pieces? -John -----Original Message----- From: Joe Landman [mailto:landman@scalableinformatics.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2003 7:57 PM To: biocluster Subject: RE: [Bioclusters] mpiBLAST On Tue, 2003-05-13 at 17:27, Osborne, John wrote: > RedHat 7.2 with the 2.4.19 kernel (SMP) > > I can get it to compile, but I have issues running it. If you are stuck trying to run it, please let us know what the errors you are getting are. Would it help if I wrote a more detailed step-by-step, complete with examples? -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Scalable Informatics LLC, email: landman@scalableinformatics.com web : http://scalableinformatics.com phone: +1 734 612 4615 _______________________________________________ Bioclusters maillist - Bioclusters@bioinformatics.org https://bioinformatics.org/mailman/listinfo/bioclusters
