Hi all,
I'm wondering if its possible to use a SLURM queue system with i-pi (for the driver code).
Thanks
David

Sure. You just have to be a bit careful with the setup, depending on the network topology on the cluster. 
There is a bit of a discussion in the manual. Often you need to dynamically adjust the settings of i-PI from 
the SLURM script, e.g. change <address> field to reflect the IP of the node i-pi runs on, and change 
accordingly the input of the driver code to connect to it
