Subject: Anyone tried PVM w/LoadBalancer (Sparc20/51)?

The Question:

I have access to a Sparc20/51 server, with 20 CPUs, and I want
to try out my PVM applications.  However, the system is currently
running LoadBalancer, from Unison-Tymlabs, and I am supposed to
run my applications under LoadBalancer, too.  Has anyone had any
experience with this, or for that matter any other load-balancing
programs in conjunction with PVM (3.2.6)?

Can I do something almost as simple as replace pvm_spawn("foo", ...)
with pvm_spawn("lbrun foo", ...)?
