Comment (by barry.wardell):

 Replying to [comment:6 eschnett]:
 > The underlying problem is that there are two separate machines sharing
 the same head node. Damiana/Datura are unique in this respect. Can this be
 changed? Can there be a second head node? Isn't there a second head node
 anyway that could be used? Don't you have that problem for every
 executable, having to remember for which machine you built it?

 We asked Nico about a second head node in the past, but he was keen to
 keep a single unified environment as much as possible. Note that it is
 possible to use the same executable on both machines. The only difference
 between their OptionLists is the SSE version used (2 on Damiana and 4 on
 Datura) so an executable built for Damiana runs fine on Datura. We even
 have a single environment for both machines. What is not the same is the
 machine entry - they have different queues, ppn, etc. These are things
 which only affect SimFactory.
