Interworking MPI between Windows and Linux

1.2k views Asked by At

I have several Windows box and Linux box interconnected with Infiniband, and I need to run MPI jobs in both environment, does anyone know what's the best way to interwork them ?

Currently, I am considering using the beta release of windows binary of open MPI. Maybe I need to add additional things into my hpc sw stack ? Or should I just forget about MPI and directly code in a lower layer for the getting the windows part to work, since there are few jobs that needs windows anyway.

Any idea is appreciated. Many thanks!
