Does PVFS work with Open-MX?
Yes, PVFS does work with Open-MX. To use Open-MX, configure PVFS with the the same arguments that you would use for a normal MX installation: “-disable-bmi-tcp” and “-with-mx=PATH”. In addition, however, you must set the “MX_IMM_ACK” environment variable to “1” before starting the pvfs2-server or pvfs2-client daemons. This is necessary in order to account for differences in how MX and Open-MX handle message progression by default.
