Hi Gilles I would prefer improving the faq rather than adding yet more complexity in this area. The way things go you would add this feature then someone else with a different use case would complain we had broken something for them. Then we would add another mca param to disable the new tm less module etc.
I think the faq should be more explicit about configury options required for orte/resource manager integration feature to work. Howard ---------- sent from my smart phonr so no good type.
