Syntax: --gmca <key> <value>, where key is the parameter name and value is the parameter value. The g prefix indicates that this parameter is “global”, and to be applied to all application contexts — not just the one in which the directive appears.

Pass generic MCA parameters — i.e., parameters whose project affiliation must be determined by PRRTE based on matching the name of the parameter with defined values from various projects that PRRTE knows about.

Deprecated

This translation can be incomplete (e.g., if known project adds or changes parameters) — thus, it is strongly recommended that users use project-specific parameters such as --gprtemca or --gpmixmca.
