I'm trying to use the HP MPI parallel method for the CFX Solver in conjunction with ssh (rsh has been disabled). I keep getting the following error:

machinename: Connection refused
An error has occurred in cfx5solve:

The CFX-5 solver could not be started, or exited with return code 255. No
results file has been created.



The environment variable CFX5RSH is usually used to allow the CFX Solver to operate with ssh instead of rsh:
CFX5RSH = ssh
However, HP MPI has it's own environment variable to point to ssh, and CFX5RSH hasn't been hooked up to it (as of CFX-10). HP MPI can operate with ssh by setting the following environment variable:

MPI_REMSH = /bin/ssh
