 +For those of you running MPI or MPI enabled applications, you will need to make some changes to your scripts.  The ''wrapper'' program to use with greentail's Lava scheduler is the same as for cluster sharptail. It can be found here:  /share/apps/bin/lava.openmpi.mpirun.   If other flavors are desired, you can inform me or look look at the example scripts lava.//mpi_flavor//.mpi[run|exec].
