Exit Problems for PSVM when using PBS

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello,

  We are testing PSVM using PBS and MOAB schedulers. In the code, you guys
are using exit(1) when an error occurs. This causes that particular job to 
quit, however all the other processes keep going. The job then goes zombie
and has to be killed manually ( we usually do not get root access so it's a
touchy subject to ask our sys administrator to do this).
  Would it be possible to add a function for this use, something like:

void paralllel_interface:exit()
{
  MPI_Abort(MPI_COMM_WORLD,EXIT_FAILURE);
}
which would get around this problem?

Thanks,
Patrick Nichols

Thanks for your suggestion.
We didnot seem to have this problem using MPICH2.
But surely this is what we should do. I will add soon.
