ps. please take my advice about not spending time on systems
install/systems administration.
You have eight machines - get stuck in now and concentrate on getting
Openfoam to run, which will be pretty interesting.
And I'm really interested in what you find with Openfoam - report back
to us how hard

Hello,
do you know that there is an open source, entry level version of LSF
available named Lava from
http://www.hpccommunity.org/index.php?pageid=lava
This might be helpful if you want to test without buying LSF licenses.
Best regards,

In general it's most efficient to have a job use wh
Often I need to request 9 cpus on our architecture with 8 cpus/server.
In such situations it makes sense to ask for a full server (8 cpus)
plus 1 more cpu wherever I can get it.
What is the best request to do this? [Scheduler: PBS-Torque;
Super-scheduler: Maui]
