Glad you sorted it out, though you "can" install hdf5 anywhere - it just works, apart from when it doesn't :) If these clusters are live, you might want to try testing in either virtualbox (www.virtualbox.org) or virtualenv (pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv) first - could save you a lot of downtime. It would be interesting to know how you're using pytables in a cluster - if you're at liberty to share.
