feff8 & MPI

[Michel Jaouen <Michel.Jaouen@univ-poitiers.fr>]

	Hi guys,

	I'm currently running the parallel feff8 code under MPI on a 
cluster (20 nodes, 2 processors pernode). The administrator has 
defined various queues for job sumitting in batch and thus one for 
parallel jobs (8 nodes available for, e.g. 16 processors). The 
queuing system is running under PBS which hase some kind of nodes 
files (or environment
variables, which actually contains the names of nodes assigned to the 
job). But it seems that MPI doesn't take it into account and it 
happens that my jobs are waiting in some cases (when MPI asks for a 
node which is active for a job from an other defined queue, even it 
exists enough free processors).
Therefore it seems I need a small "wrapper" which pastes this 
information (the node file defined for PBS) into MPI. As anybody a 
little shell script for doing that? (I'm not an expert at all with 
MPI management).

	Thanks for advice

	M. Jaouen
