  Hello,

  I have a question for you. Well, for anybody in fact, but I ask you
because I think you are the most likely to know the answer.

  I want to add a new machine to an already existent PVM (that is,
without stopping it). But, since it is different from the ones
currently in the VM, I have to specify parameters (login name,
executable path, etc.). And it seems to me that the PVM console cannot
do this trick (if the daemon is already running, it won't be called
with the new parameters). And, since I have jobs running on the PVM, I
would prefer not to stop it.

  Is this possible, or will I have to wait till the end of my jobs and
halt-and-relaunch the daemons?

  Thanks,

Roland.
