Hello,

I am new to LAM-MPI, and had the following question:

we have a simple home-brewn scheduler that we use for research purposes. This
includes a server application that runs on the head node, and every client
machine on the cluster runs a client deamon.

I want the abilility to spawn mpi processes from this client deamon. Thus each
instance of the mpi-program having been spawned from the client deamon should
be able to then setup the MPI environment and run as an MPI application.

More over, i would also like to be able to capture sig_child signals when
something goes wrong in the MPI application.

is this possible with LAM MPI? would using lamexec be an option? where can i
get more information to get this accomplished.

Thank you, looking forward to your response,
Gautam
