During installation select MPICH2 to be installed for Everyone.
Also make sure that you keep the default setting for passphrase (usually behappy) during the installation.
After installing MPICH2 successfully, you may add rules to your firewall to allow the programs mpiexec.exe and smpd.exe to communicate through firewall. This process depends on your firewall.
You need to add the bin folder of MPICH2 (usually C: PROGRAM FILES MPICH2 bin) to your PATH. Next, open an admin command prompt by right-clicking on the command prompt icon and selecting run as administrator.
Work
- Add the installed directorybin to your environment path
2.In the Administrator command prompt type the following commands in sequence:
[php]smpd -install
mpiexec-remove
mpiexec -register
mpiexec -validate (it should return SUCCESS)
smpd -status (it should return ‘smpd running on ‘)[/php]
If the last two commands are successfully，then go to next step.
Run
find a example under /MPICH2/examples
just like “mpiexec -n 2 cpi.exe” perfect !!!
