Yes. LAM has supported PBS for quite a while now. LAM will try to
look for PBS related binaries/libraries in the standard places before
giving up in configure. I bet the binaries/libraries for PBS are in a
non-obvious place, and LAM was not configured with explicit PBS support.
To see how to configure LAM with PBS support take a look at the
section "TM (OpenPBS/PBS Pro/Torque) boot Module" in the LAM/MPI
Installation guide [section 6.4.2] which can be found here:
http://www.lam-mpi.org/using/docs/
From out discussion today it sounds like your sysadmin didn't
install LAM properly, and that is causing the problems you are
seeing. I would ask them to reinstall LAM and ensure they enable the
PBS tm boot module.
I hope this helps a bit,
Josh
