Yes, but the web page does say:

# By default, the applications launched by a single execution of
# the srun command (even for different components of the
# heterogeneous job) are combined into one MPI_COMM_WORLD with
# non-overlapping task IDs.

So it _should_ work.

I know there are issues with Cray systems & hetjobs at the moment, but I 
suspect that's not likely to concern you.

All the best,
Chris
