The TM interface is used in lamboot to create the LAM universe. Once
the LAM universe has been created, then you can use the MPI-2 dynamic
process functionality just as if you were outside of the scheduler
environment. The limitation is that you have to work inside the LAM
universe that you created during lamboot when creating processes.
However, the TM interface doesn't support the addion/subtraction of
resources to the LAM universe (such as asking the scheduler for more
nodes).
Does that address your question?
Cheers,
Josh
