For example: shell$ ./configure –with-tm=/path/to/pbs_or_torque/installation After Open MPI is installed, you should see two components named “tm”: shell$ ompi_info | grep tm MCA pls: tm (MCA v1.0, API v1.0, Component v1.0) MCA ras: tm (MCA v1.0, API v1.0, Component v1.0) Specific frameworks and version numbers may vary, depending on your version of Open MPI.
