Hello, all,

I got some MPI internal error while running on a Cray XE6 machine (Hopper), the error message reads:

So I checked up the environment parameters on hopper at

https://www.nersc.gov/users/computational-systems/hopper/running-jobs/runtime-tuning-options/#toc-anchor-1

I tried to increase MPI_GNI_MAX_EAGER_MSG_SIZE from 8192 to 131070, but it did not help.

Any suggestions that how could resolve this error for MPI_Irecv() and MPI_Isend()?

Thanks very much!
