The results returned by "pvmgetarch:" for PVM 3.3.10 will indicate
whether the machine is a multi-processor.  For example:

IBM: RS6K  vs RS6KMP
Solaris: SUN4Sol2 vs SUNMP
SGI: SGI5 vs SGI64MP (assuming the env var SGIMP = ON)

My question:

If Will the RS6KMP version of pvmd and the pvm libs run on an RS6K
architecture?  If so, am I penaliized for trying to run MP code on a non-MP
system?

Please direct replies to: cindy@advance.com

Thanks much.
