Quote:Jwkeller Feb 15th 4:55 pm Do you still need to reboot the cluster nodes after having manually killed the leftover processes? No - I tried several runs, and I can indeed recover full funationality of the node by finding the process numbers and then issuing n "kill -9 [process number} n times. Hopefully this can be done automatically, or prevented in the first place. John K. John, Using killall you should be able to kill all the nwchem associated processes. The command is killall -9 nwchem Another possibility is to use the openmpi orte-clean (a.k.a. ompi-clean) http://www.open-mpi.org/doc/v1.4/man1/ompi-clean.1.php
