Specifically, if a host is listed here and is # used in the LAM universe, the MPI SSI modules will use the remapped # address for all of its direct MPI communication. # # A common example of where this is useful is when you want to lamboot # over a "slow" TCP network but have your MPI communications go across # a different, "fast" TCP network. You would list your slow IP # names/addresses here and remap them to the fast names/addresses. # The LAM MPI SSI modules will automatically remap from the "slow" to # "fast" addresses whenever they create new connections for MPI-based # communications. # # Note that lamd-based communication (i.e., LAM run-time environment # native/out-of-band communication) will still use the original # addresses. Hence, the "lamd" rpi module will still use the original # addresses -- not the remapped addreses. # # Example entries: # # node1.slow.example.com mpi=node1.fast.example.com # node2.slow.example.com mpi=node2.fast.example.com # # The "fast" entries should be listed under the "mpi" key. #
