Aborting: mpiexec on %HOSTNAME% is unable to connect to the msmpi service on 1:86

Question
-
Hi,
I got three Windows Server 2008 R2 in a vmware vsx server to install a HPC cluster.
I installed Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 R2 on this machines and configured a cluster.
One machine is head node, broker node, work node and containes the sql server.
The other machines are work nodes.
I made dns, domain, network configuration and mpi ping pong test. All tests completed succesfully.
As next I tried:
C:\Users\oks>mpiexec.exe -host 1 localhost hostname
Aborting: mpiexec on %HOSTNAME% is unable to connect to the msmpi service on 1:86
77
Other MPI error, error stack:
ConnectFailed(961): unable to connect to 1 on port 8677, exhausted all endpointsConnectFailed(952): unable to connect to 1 on port 8677, A socket operation was
attempted to an unreachable network. (errno 10051)C:\Users\oks>

I got the same error, if I use the hostname instead localhost.
Firewall is enabled for domain network. msmpisvc.exe is enable in firewall rules for domain network.
oks is member of the local admin group.
Where is problem?
Does anyone have an idea?

Hi,
If you simply wants a diagnostic, you can try the diagnostics from the Cluster Manager. Doing "-host 1" is not a valid input for mpiexec (do you happen to have a host has name 1?)
Thanks.

It seemed your command is wrong. You should use -hosts instead of -host
Try with:
mpiexec.exe -hosts 1 localhost hostname
For more information about mpiexec.exe, run mpiexec -?
It will tell you:
-hosts n host1 [m1] host2 [m2] ... hostn [mn]
