Discriminate we did. Not intentionally, but you are correct that it is not supported by all the launchers yet. We are not removing it, but I don't have the cycles at the moment to add the support to all the different launchers. It is about 10 lines that need to be added to the launchers, an

I'm coming back on this feature. Whatever it does, it doesn't do it right. If we support a new feature, then at least it should be supported by all launchers (HINT it should go somewhere in the base). As I read the PLS code, only the RSH PLS can have this feature. That's called discriminati

Developers, I just committed back to the trunk the Aggregate MCA (AMCA) Parameter Set work that Jeff Squyres and I have been working on. This will be a part of the eventual v1.3 release. The motivation for creating AMCA parameter sets came from the realization that for certain application
