Hi,

You are using a very old version of MVAPICH. We strongly recommend that
you upgrade to the latest version which gives you the best performance and
more features. You can download the latest release from the following
website

http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu/download/mvapich/

MVAPICH-1.1 allows you to choose multiple paths between end nodes by the
use of the environment variable "VIADEV_USE_LMC". Please set this to '1' to
enable this feature.

Please refer to MVAPICH user guide available at the following link for more information.

Thx,
Hari.
