I think you actually have a few options:
1. If I'm reading the original mail right, I don't think you need
mpirun/mpiexec at all. When you submit a scripted job to PBS, the
script runs on the "mother superior" node -- the first node that was
allocated to you. In this, case it's your only

Hi John
I'm afraid that the straightforward approach you're trying isn't going to
work with Open MPI in its current implementation. I had plans for supporting
this kind of operation, butnot happening. And as you discovered, you
cannot run mpiexec/mpirun in the background, and the "do-not-wait"
