Thanks for this information. Everything looks pretty OK to me.
Just as a suggestion, can you try MVAPICH2-0.9.8p2. It has an
integrated version of multi-rail and support for advanced InfiniBand
features.

Once you have downloaded the version, please use the compilation
instructions:

http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu/support/user_guide_mvapich2.html#x1-90004.4

MVAPICH2 supports MPD. To use MPD please take a look at the following:

http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu/support/user_guide_mvapich2.html#x1-170005.2

and let us know if the program works fine for you.

Thanks,
