Does LAM MPI run over Myrinet? If so, is there anything that needs to be done to configure LAM to run over Myrinet? There are old posts (years old; from 2000/2001) along these lines in the mail archives, but nothing on the web site that indicates support for LAM running over Myrinet. We just got our first Linux cluster, so we are only just beginning to port codes and explore how it works. The cluster has Myrinet, so obviously we would like to run MPI over that as opposed to Ethernet.

Assuming LAM runs over Myrinet, I have a related question. We just updated our version of LAM from 6.5.4 to 6.5.9 via RPM binaries. Will binary updates via RPM run over Myrinet, or do we need to build from source to enable Myrinet gm?
