There are also HOWTOs floating around on the web for integrating various older parallel libraries with Grid Engine. Most boil down to ways of getting the parallel code to launch slave processes via qrsh -inherit. It is possible that Oracle had some integrations for libraries for which there isn't a working public HOWTO but in any case they've now handed over responsibility for support to Univa. IIRC Univa bundle a bunch of parallel library integrations with their Univa Grid Engine product. -- William Hay <[email protected]>
