Palabos on an Itanium Cluster

So far I have done all my simulations on my office desktop PC, but soon I will start with larger simulations, and noticed we have an unused Itanium Cluster.
I don´t know much about the Itanium processor (just googled it), all I know so far it´s running under Linux - Redhat.

Is any1 using an Itanium Cluster and can share some experience, since it has a special architecture I´m wondering how it works together with the MPI-extension ?

thanks,

chris

Hi i try to work with palabos in a cluster in have chosen the example of recangularChannel3d in chowCases topic
