Guess I'm confused - what is the issue here? The param still exists: MCA plm: parameter "plm_rsh_agent" (current value: <ssh : rsh>, data source: default value, synonyms: pls_rsh_agent, orte_rsh_agent) The command used to launch executables on remote nodes (typically either "ssh" or "rsh")
I am unaware of any plans to deprecate it. Is there a problem with it?
