Excuse all,

I found the answer in the PVM-HOWTO:

I have to give the option pvm_hosts to the pvmpov command line:

... pvm_hosts=aquila,aquila,fire2,fire2,fire1,fire1,linux8000,linux8000,
linux8000,linux8000,sds20a,ses40a,ses40 +nt28

to have so 
4 tasks on aquila ( 28/14 + 28/14 = 4)
4 tasks on fire2 
4 tasks on fire1
8 tasks on linux8000 (28/14 + 28/14 + 28/14 + 28/14 = 8)
2 tasks on sds20a
4 tasks on ses40a

Thanks anyway.

Bye,
Gianluca
