<DIV>Dear Jeff,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We are currently moving our Blue Gene system from Loadleveler resource manager to Moab Scheduling system. The Moab is currently running very well with Slurm in Blue Gene but the problem is the mpi. Unfortunately; all the mpi wrappers in /bgsys/drivers/ppcfloor/comm/bin/ were compiled against Loadleveler libraries. Is there any Blue Gene documentation that you think it may help me?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
