> I am running with just one host on the hostfile. I meant to say that there have been no problems running multiple prun commands without add-hostfile option.

I wanted to use the DVM expansion feature, starting DVM with one node and then add another node with `add-hostfile` option on `prun`. `st27` is the added node with `add-hostfile`...

> If you run the two `prun` commands sequentially on the cmd line, does that work? Yes. Running sequentially works.

Yes. The project I am working on uses fork method for starting the processes using python multiprocessing module. The following is the log after it receives prun commands. ``` [st-master:2558116]...

This is the log with `--prtemca oob_base_verbose 5 --prtemca rml_base_verbose 5` ``` [st-master:2560223] [prte-st-master-2560223@0,0] TOOL CONNECTION REQUEST RECVD [st-master:2560223] [prte-st-master-2560223@0,0] PROCESSING TOOL CONNECTION [st-master:2560223] [prte-st-master-2560223@0,0] TOOL CONNECTION REQUEST RECVD [st-master:2560223]...

I am running under the Slurm allocation but with prrte and pmix built with `--with-slurm=no` option.

This is the result for `prte --display alloc --prtemca ras_base_verbose 10 --hostfile hostfile` after it receives prun commands. ``` [st-master:2612696] [prte-st-master-2612696@0,0] ras:base:allocate [st-master:2612696] [prte-st-master-2612696@0,0] ras:base:allocate allocation already read [st-master:2612696] [prte-st-master-2612696@0,0]...

I found another strange issue while running `prun` with `add-hostfile` option. Sometimes prun is seems to be running one more copy of the program than specified in `-np` option. ```...
