You have expressed this problem in a very misleading fashion. Here is a table showing the equivalent commands and options for the most common workload managers (Slurm, LSF, PBS, SGE and LoadLeveler) that should help:

Quoting Michal Zielinski <michal.zielin...@uconn.edu>:

To be honest I'm not sure about what setup was done (ex. MPI in the
background), but when I run *bsub -n 50 ./script* on our cluster, I get a
single process that has access to a total of 50 cores spread across
multiple nodes.Some of these nodes may also contain cores that are
allocated to a different job.

To clarify the Linux kernel can support these sorts of systems, but
you'll either need extra supporting software or specialised hardware,
or both. :-)

It's controlled by the kernel option CONFIG_X86_EXTENDED_PLATFORM, viz:

if X86_64
config X86_EXTENDED_PLATFORM
        bool "Support for extended (non-PC) x86 platforms"
        default y
        ---help---
          If you disable this option then the kernel will only support
          standard PC platforms. (which covers the vast majority of
          systems out there.)

          If you enable this option then you'll be able to select support
          for the following (non-PC) 64 bit x86 platforms:
                Numascale NumaChip
                ScaleMP vSMP
                SGI Ultraviolet

          If you have one of these systems, or if you want to build a
          generic distribution kernel, say Y here - otherwise say N.
