Dear R People: I'm having some trouble with mpiexec and Rmpi. I would like to be able to pass in the number of "children" via the mpiexec command (from the command line). this is in SUSE10.1, with R-2.7.1 Here are my files: cat eb.R library(Rmpi) mpi.remote.exec(paste("i am",mpi.comm.rank(),"of",mpi.comm.size())) mpi.quit() hodgesse at

Hello, We have R working with Rmpi/openmpi, but I'm a little worried. Specifically, (a) the -np flag doesn't seem to override the hostfile (it works fine with fortran hello world) and (b) I appear to have twice as many processes running as I think I should. Rmpi version 0.5.5 Openmpi version 1.1 Viglen HPC with (effectively) 9 blades and 8 nodes on each blade. myhosts file contains

Dear All I want to use R, Rscript und r alternately under one common configuration. The problem is that \"r\" can't find the package \"Rmpi\" and other packages whereas \"R\" has no problem to find. $ R --vanilla < mpiHelloWorld.r #!/usr/bin/env r library(Rmpi) # calls MPI_Init rk <- mpi.comm.rank(0) sz <- mpi.comm.size(0) name <-

Dear R People: I'm trying to install Rmpi (latest version) on Ubuntu. However, I'm getting the following error: erin at erin-Y480:~$ R R version 2.15.1 (2012-06-22) -- "Roasted Marshmallows" Copyright (C) 2012 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing ISBN 3-900051-07-0 Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) R is free software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

Many thanks to Dr Yu for updating Rmpi for R 2.6.0, and for starting to make the changes to support Open MPI. I have just built the updated Debian package of Rmpi (i.e. r-cran-rmpi) under R 2.6.0 but I cannot convince myself yet whether it works or not. Simple tests work. E.g. on my Debian testing box, with Rmpi installed directly using Open Mpi 1.2.3-2 (from Debian) and using 'r' from

Dear People, This may not be the right place to ask a question about Rmpi, but I don't know of a better one. I am trying to get a simple program working using Rmpi with the model of 1 R master and n C slaves. What I am trying to do is have each of the C slaves generate a random number from U[0,1], and then have the master collect all n numbers as a vector and output it. However even doing

Dear R Debian Users: I wrote a quick C program (eventually to become R code) and compiled it as: mpicc -o greet greet.c So far so good. Now when I run mpirun, this happens: erin at erin-laptop:~$ mpirun -np 2 greet ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- It seems that there is no lamd running on the host erin-laptop. This indicates that the LAM/MPI

I have a network of four machines set up. I'm having trouble spawning my slaves on these machines. All the examples I have found so far use makeCluster with type="MPI", and I guess I'm missing some kind of cluster configuration in my environment variables because all my clusters are formed on the machine where my initial session is running. Can anyone refer me to a link that

Hi R people: I installed R-2.6.0 on a Red Hat Linux system and am now trying to install the Rmpi package. The installation cannot seem to find the mpi.h file, even though it exists. Is there a variable that I should be exporting into the process, please? Thanks in advance, Sincerely, Erin Hodgess mailto: hodgess at gator.uhd.edu

I'm fairly astute at C and R but new to parallelization. Would someone be willing to provide help in the form of a simple example that parallelizes an R function from the inside of a C routine? If so, write me back at izmirlig at mail.nih.gov Thanks!

Dear R People: I'm running Rmpi on a single machine and I have the following statement from the command line: mpirun -np 3 ./R --no-save < eek1.in >stuff4.out The stuff4.out file only contains the third result. Is there a way to fix this such that it shows all 3 sets, please Thanks in advance, Erin -- Erin Hodgess Associate Professor Department of Computer and Mathematical

I am working on a SLES 10 cluster with R available on it. To better use my resources, I want to use Rmpi, but I am having a difficult time installing it. I have set the $R_LIBS variable correctly. The MPI libraries are available through the PGI compiler, but this R instance was compiled with GCC. The Rmpi package can be compiled and installed with %R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz

Dear R People: I am having some trouble with the snow package. It requires MPICH2 and Rmpi. Rmpi is fine. However, I downloaded the MPICH2 package, and installed. There is no mpicc, mpirun, etc. Does anyone have any suggestions, please? Thanks in advance!

Dear R People: I was wondering if there were any packages for parallel programming in R. According to the R-help, at one time there was a package called SNOW. It doesn't seem to exist anymore. Any help would be much appreciated! Sincerely, Erin Hodgess mailto: hodgess@gator.uhd.edu [[alternative(swapped) HTML version deleted]]

Anyone using or has access to ParallelR? I was looking at the page and found nothing really useful! http://www.revolution-computing.com/sitegenius/topic.php?id=195 I want to see if I can run R on a cluster of workstation, and use batch systems like Grid Engine or Xgrid: http://gridengine.sunsource.net/ http://ww.apple.com/acg/xgrid/ --Chi

Hi all, now I'm testing R in a "virtual cluster", made it with VirtualBox. This one has 3 nodes, running CentOS 5 and OpenMPI 1.2.8, and the principal node (called "server") exports the /home to other nodes. I have installed R and OpenMPI in /home, in fact, it seems work OK. Editing the openmpi-default-hostfile and run "mpirun -np 3 hostname" I can see the

Hello, I'd like to take a look at how the taskPR package performs on our computational cluster, and this morning I've spend some time trying to do a test install of this package on one of our linux machines. Unfortunately I've been unsuccessful in completing the install, and I wondered if someone could please advise me. As I've noted I working on a linux machine, and it's

Dear R People: I'm having trouble installing Rmpi on a debian machine.

I just installed Rmpi on my 64-bit Ubuntu Hardy Heron OS and using the following without errors: "R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz --configure-args=--with-mpi=/usr/lib64/openmpi" Immediately at library(Rmpi) I get the segfault displayed in my complete output below. My first thought is that perhaps I used the wrong library for openmpi, but with my 64 bit install it seemed like a logical
