Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide for controlling message flow across a parallel computer system having multiple compute nodes by selectively grouping compute nodes of such a system into node pools and assigning message flow control policies to nodes in the node pools. The message flow control policies specify logging and/or tracing activities to be performed by instances of applications running on nodes assigned to the node pools. As the application is executed, logging and/or tracing messages are generated on the compute nodes according to message flow control policies assigned to the nodes. Optionally, the message flow is analyzed, the message flow control policies are adjusted, and duplicate messages are eliminated.
