In many cases better performance can be achieved with the low-level OFED ``libibverbs`` library. In order to select the ``ofa`` fabric for Intel MPI inter-node communication, export the following environment variable in your job script or ``salloc`` session: .. code-block:: export I_MPI_FABRIC=shm:ofa Error Messages on |SYSTEM_NAME| +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ What does the error message "vsetenv ... failed" mean? ------------------------------------------------------ The warning message .. code-block:: Note: Max supported value for env var is 4095 vsetenv ... failed is generated by the InfiniBand driver userspace library when an environment variable exceeds the limit of 4095 characters. This warning has no effect on the running job and can safely be ignored until a fix is available. .. include:: ../shared/faq.rst FAQ about Data Management +++++++++++++++++++++++++ .. include:: ../shared/faq-just.rst
