  ****************************************************************
  The output from the configCGSharedLib.py script does not
  inform the user about the creation of the shared library.  The
  script can also create duplicate shared libraries, thus a
  check is needed to see if an existing library already exists
  for a given name. Additionally, new function needs to be added
  to allow a specific list of cluster/server targets for
  creation of the shared libraries.
  

Problem conclusion
