Reuti, Thanks for your comments,
In our case, we are currently running different mpirun commands on clusters sharing the same frontend. Basically we use a wrapper to run the mpirun command and to run an ompi-clean command to clean up the mpi job if required. Using ompi-clean like this just kills all other mpi jobs running on same frontend. I cannot use queuing system as you have suggested this is why I was wondering a option or other solution associated to ompi-clean command to avoid this general mpi jobs cleaning.
