NAME
ompi_info - Display information about the Open MPI installation
SYNOPSIS
ompi_info [options]
DESCRIPTION
ompi_info provides detailed information about the Open MPI installa-
tion. It can be useful for at least three common scenarios:
1. Checking local configuration and seeing how Open MPI was installed.
2. Submitting bug reports / help requests to the Open MPI community
(see https://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/)
3. Seeing a list of installed Open MPI plugins and querying what MCA
parameters they support.
OPTIONS
ompi_info accepts the following options:
-a|--all
Show all configuration options and MCA parameters
--arch Show architecture Open MPI was compiled on
-c|--config
Show configuration options
-gmca|--gmca <param> <value>
Pass global MCA parameters that are applicable to all contexts.
-h|--help
Shows help / usage message
--hostname
Show the hostname that Open MPI was configured and built on
--internal

users)
-mca|--mca <param> <value>
Pass context-specific MCA parameters; they are considered
global if --gmca is not used and only one context is specified.
--param <type> <component>
Show MCA parameters. The first parameter is the type of the
component to display; the second parameter is the specific com-
ponent to display (or the keyword "all", meaning "display all
components of this type").

When used in conjunction with other parameters, the output is
displayed in a machine-parsable format --parseable Synonym for
