Hi,

probably there is just a problem with node126 on your system.  
mx_open_endpoint
errors can occur if there is still another (dead?) job occupying the  
myrinet interface.
You should check for such jobs on the node, kill them, and if it still  
does not work,
reboot that node.

Alternatively, if you just submit the same job again (and it ends up  
on different nodes),
I would guess that it runs fine.

Carsten
