Collective H5 calls

I was wondering about collective H5 calls (and perhaps the definition of
collective MPI calls). Is the idea that every process in MPI_comm_world must
participate (i.e. EVERY available processor) , or every process in a given
communicator?

Subject: Re: [Hdf-forum] XZ filter identity
Jerome,

XZ compression filter is not currently registered with The HDF Group. To
make it available to others you will need to register the filter with us and
get an identifier.

To request a filter identifier please contact help@hdfgroup.org
with the following information

# Contact information for developer requesting the new identifier
# Short description of the new filter
# Links to any relevant information including licensing information

Currently there are four filters registered with The HDF Group.

  *Filter identifier* *Name* *Short Description* 305 LZO LZO lossless
compression used by PyTables 307 BZIP2 BZIP2 lossless compression used
by PyTables 32000 LZF LZF lossless compression used by H5Py project

Thanks,

I am implementing a XZ filter:
I wondering if there is an unofficial filter identifier for XZ
as there is for bz2 ?

Thanks in advance,

Subject: [Hdf-forum] filter module
Hello List:

Is there any project for porting filter module to HDF5 ?

Greetings,
Jerome

Collective routines take a communicator as one of the arguments: all
processes in that communicator must participate.

I/O routines are a little different, as the communicator was specified
at open time, but again, all processes who participated in open need
to participate in the collective i/o.

similarly, in hdf5 you associate a communicator with an hdf5 file
(H5Pset_fapl_mpio). Does not have to be MPI_COMM_WORLD.
