Hi,

in Munich we use SGE with Lam/MPI and Rmpi (latest version). It is 
working very well now. There were only some small changes to the SGE 
configuration required.

Attached a document form REvolution Computing for using SGE with 
OpenMPI. It is a nice installation guide. Thanks to REvolution for 
providing this document to the R community.

Best
Markus
