[Moabusers] problems between torque and moab

[Brock Palen]

We have a new machine,  it is a 8 cpu SMP machine.  Torque sees that  
is has 8 cpus,
(np=8)
but when i try to submit a job it asking for 8 cpus i get:

[brockp at nyx ~]$ qsub -I -V -l host=nyxtest2:ppn=8 -q staff
qsub: waiting for job 28174.nyx.engin.umich.edu to start
qsub: PBS: MOAB_INFO:  interactive job can never run - partition nyx  
has insufficient instances of requested class staff configured (5 < 8)

The only thing i can see is the Class: line from checknode (below)   
For the x4600 it only shows up with 1 available, and the other node  
in the staff queue (4 cpu box) shows up with all 4.  But torque sees  
all the cpus, and moab should slurp all this in.  Am i missing  
something?
