#######       CALL FOR HELP    #############

To run the program TEST on a cluster consisting of workstations from HP
and IBM I use
the skript mpirun as descripted in the MPICH User's Guide.

	----> mpirun -arch hpux -np 2 -arch rs6000 -np 2 TEST

In this manner I'm able to start the program on workstations with
different architectures.
I do this by using the same device, inthis case ch_p4.

BUT I don't know, how I can run an application on systems with the same
architecture and 
different devices. Well, I'm trying to start a program on HP
workstations and on a Convex SPP1000 machine.
Both kinds of machines rely on the architecture hpux but use different
kinds
of devices. The SPP-machine uses ch_shmem and HP workstations use ch_p4.

	
---> How can I run a program in this case, without installing the
routines for the ch_p4
     device on the SPP?
