RE: MS-MPI with Nonmem: experiences?
Dear Ruben,
I have not tried this - I don't want to break my currently working MPI ;-) but
have you tried adding whatever the equivalent of mpiexec.exe and smpd.exe
(nonmem.exe as well?) to your firewall and allow access to Domain and Home/Work
(Private)? That's what I believe is required for MPICH2 installation.
Regards,
David

Subject: [NMusers] MS-MPI with Nonmem: experiences?
Dear group,
The MPI library of choice for Nonmem has been MPICH2 for quite some time now.
Since the last release of MPICH2 on April 2013, the package has been
unsupported on Windows. The developers of MPICH2 actually recommend migrating
to MS-MPI.
By adding the required libraries to the compiler command in NMFE, NONMEM runs
nicely using MS-MPI.
Performance benchmarks show no difference between MS-MPI and MPICH2.
Only one minor nuisance remains: there is a windows firewall popup for every
nonmem.exe executable.
Did anybody else try this ? Did your mileage vary?
Kind regards,
Ruben Faelens
