orte-info - Display information about the ORTE installation

orte-info [options]

orte-info provides detailed information about the ORTE installation. It can be useful for at least three common scenarios:

1. Checking local configuration and seeing how ORTE was installed.
2. Submitting bug reports / help requests to the ORTE community (see

http://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/)

1. Seeing a list of installed ORTE plugins and querying what MCA

parameters they support.
