SubscriberDear Community,
I am struggling to run Fluent in distributed parallel on Linux. (I have done this for decades on Windows.) Below is a list similar to the error messages I am getting. (I dont have my solver available now to copy the exact messages, but these contain the main context.) I have repeatedly assigned the environment variable MPI_IB_PKEY = 0x8008 in the GUI, but nothing changes. When I look at the script that ANSYS automatically generates at the command line when I fire up the GUI, it has other environment variables but not the one I entered. I also tried this command, but nothing improved: export MPI_IB_PKEY="0xffff". Thank you in advance for your advice.
Rank 0
5: MPI_Init_thread: multiple pkey found in partition key table, please choose one via MPI_IB_PKEY

Ansys EmployeeCould you post screenshots of the page that you add the environment variable , the beginning of console output once you start the Fluent GUI , and the command line once you start the GUI ?

SubscriberThank you Win very much for your feedback. We found a workaround without further diagnostics, so I am going to call this "solved".
