Make and Clusters

[David Delahaye]

Hello,

I wonder how the make command is compatible with clusters. I know the 
"-j" option, which allows us to run several jobs simultaneously and uses 
the several cores of a given processor. But if we have several nodes of 
computation of a cluster, is the command "make -j" able to run over 
these nodes (transparently for the user)? I know there are specific 
commands to run jobs on a cluster, I would like to know how "make -j" is 
compatible with these commands. Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,

David Delahaye.
