Hey can anyone let me know how to resolve this issue while running a case
(A "slot" is the Open MPI term for an allocatable unit where we can launch a process. The number of slots available are defined by the environment in which Open MPI processes are run:
1. Hostfile, via "slots=N" clauses (N defaults to number of processor cores if not provided)
2. The --host command line parameter, via a ":N" suffix on the hostname (N defaults to 1 if not provided)
3. Resource manager (e.g., SLURM, PBS/Torque, LSF, etc.)
4. If none of a hostfile, the --host command line parameter, or an RM is present, Open MPI defaults to the number of processor cores In all the above cases, if you want Open MPI to default to the number of hardware threads instead of the number of processor cores,
use the --use-hwthread-cpus option. Alternatively,
you can use the --oversubscribe option to ignore the number of available slots when deciding the number of processes to launch.)

Not a LIGGGHTS error
Hello,
This is not an error with LIGGGHTS. This refers to your hostfile when launching a MPI run across multiple nodes.
Please double check your hostfile and insure it is correct.
