thank you, you have been doubly helpful, but I am having linking errors and I do not know what the solaris studio compiler&#39;s preferred linker is.

I want to compile openmpi to work with the solaris studio express  or<br>
solaris studio. This is a different version than is installed on<br>
rockscluster 5.2  and would like to know if there any gotchas or configure<br>
flags I should use to get it working or portable to nodes on the cluster.<br>
Software-wise,  it is a fairly homogeneous environment with only slight<br>
variations on the hardware side which could be isolated (machinefile flag<br>
and what-not)<br>
Please advise<br>

Hi Nehemiah<br>
I just answered your email to the OpenMPI list.<br>
I want to add that if you build OpenMPI with Torque support,<br>
the machine file for each is not needed, it is provided by Torque.<br>
I believe the same is true for SGE (but I don&#39;t use SGE).<br><font color="#888888">
