Hi,

I'm using static mapping to route the messges on our Myrinet and I 
had a weird problem with file_mapper.

I have 16 nodes connected ad 15 have done the mapping without 
problems. I have syncronized all nodes using rsynch, so the 
system installation is the same in all nodes.

On this problematic one, the command 

l10:/usr/local/gm-1.6.3# ./file_mapper ../etc/gm/file.args. 

never ends and when I press ^C it outputs segmentation fault.

I have decided to look the routing table unsing gm_boar_info 
output in all nodes. 
 
On l10, the problematic, its routing table don't have a line to 
the mapper, l1. Instead, the gmID 1 is attributed to l10 mac 
address and it shows a message which I could not understand:

Route table for this node follows:
The mapper 48-bit ID was: 00:60:dd:7f:26:ff
gmID MAC Address                                 gmName Route
---- ----------------- -------------------------------- 
---------------------
   1 00:60:dd:7f:26:ff *** node_id->unique_id->node_id is 0x5. ***                       
localhost 80 (this node) (mapper)

On the other nodes, l1 node have gmID of 1 and it is showed on the 
first line. That is the output:  

Route table for this node follows:
The mapper 48-bit ID was: 00:60:dd:7f:27:16
gmID MAC Address                                 gmName Route
---- ----------------- -------------------------------- 
---------------------
   1 00:60:dd:7f:27:16                        localhost 80 (this 
node) (mapper) 
 
I have tried to map again and I have this output of 

l1:/usr/local/gm-1.6.3/sbin# ./mapper ../etc/gm/static.args 
18:43:54 starting to map. My clock says Thu Apr 10 18:43:54 2003
18:43:55 id conflict gmId 1, address 0060dd7f26ff
18:43:55 this id has been seen before on host localhost
18:43:56 map time was 2869039 lanai ticks, which is 1434 
millisecs.
18:43:56 found 16 hosts and 6 switches (22 nodes)
18:43:56 localhost has an id conflict
18:43:56 configuring
18:43:56 cleared conflict on  localhost (address 0060dd7f26ff)
18:43:56 route computation took 0 milliseconds
18:43:56 configuration took 20 milliseconds
18:43:56 map-once or configure-once enabled. Done mapping.

How can I avoid this gmId conflict?
