Wesley,

I understand the interest in scoping the abort to a single set of processes. However, without support for detecting that some processes have disappeared (failure or abort) I don't see how you can use this for anything constructive. Thus, I am confused by this proposal as it seems to lack a second part where the processes outside of the MPI_ABORT scope deal with the newly defined behavior.

Can you be a little bit more explicit on how this scoped MPI_ABORT, as defined in this ticket, will be beneficial to application?

Thanks,
  George.

I plan to go over this during the con call next week, but if you’d like to get a preview and/or comment early, I have a draft of the slides for the reading for ticket #324. You can view the slides here:

If you have any questions/comments, let me know.

Aurelien, I’m not sure of the status of this ticket in Open MPI. Is there a way to keep Open MPI from aborting on any error in the trunk? Is the only way to get this in the ULFM repo?

Thanks,
Wesley
