    <p>There is nothing wrong with MPI_Barrier().</p> <p>As <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5182045/openmpi-mpi-barrier-problems/5183614#5183614">Jens mentioned</a>, the reason why you are not seeing the output you expected is because stdout is buffered on each processes. There is no guarantee that prints from multiple processes will be displayed on the calling process in order. (If stdout from each process is be transferred to the main process for printing in real time, that will lead to lots of unnecessary communication!)</p> <p>If you want to convince yourself that the barrier works, you could try writing to a file instead. Having multiple processes writing to a single file may lead to extra complications, so you could have each proc writing to one file, then after the barrier, swap the files they write to. For example:</p> <pre><code> Proc-0 Proc-1 | | f0.write(..) f1.write(...) | | x ~~ barrier ~~ x | | f1.write(..) f0.write(...) | | END END </code></pre> <p>Sample implementation:</p> <pre><code>#include "mpi.h" #include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;stdlib.h&gt; int main(int argc, char **argv) { char filename[20]; int rank, size; FILE *fp; MPI_Init(&amp;argc, &amp;argv); MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &amp;rank); MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &amp;size); if (rank &lt; 2) { /* proc 0 and 1 only */ sprintf(filename, "file_%d.out", rank); fp = fopen(filename, "w"); fprintf(fp, "P%d: before Barrier\n", rank); fclose(fp); } MPI_Barrier(MPI_COMM_WORLD); if (rank &lt; 2) { /* proc 0 and 1 only */ sprintf(filename, "file_%d.out", (rank==0)?1:0 ); fp = fopen(filename, "a"); fprintf(fp, "P%d: after Barrier\n", rank); fclose(fp); } MPI_Finalize(); return 0; } </code></pre> <p>After running the code, you should get the following results:</p> <pre><code>[me@home]$ cat file_0.out P0: before Barrier P1: after Barrier [me@home]$ cat file_1.out P1: before Barrier P0: after Barrier </code></pre> <p>For all files, the "after Barrier" statements will always appear later.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
