Yeah, if you're launched via Slurm (for instance) you could have access to 
PMIx (various versions), PMI2, PMI1 (if you're earlier than 18.08) or none of 
the above..   For other resource managers the choices may be different.

Much easier to layer yourself on top of MPI and let it handle that for you! 
:-)

All the best,
Chris
