I think there's some description in the mpirun man page in the section on "Process Slots".But can you explain what the meaning of the max-slots entry is? I checked the FAQs http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=running#simple-spmd-run http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=running#mpirun-scheduling but i couldn't find any explanation. (furthermore, in the FAQ it says "max-slots" in one place, but "max_slots" in the other one)
