[Moabusers] Node access policies and reservations

I'm attempting to configure Moab (5.1.0p4) & Torque (2.1.8) to create a
standing reservation for a few nodes which are intended for interactive
development and testing work. These nodes will be shared, with multiple
different people running interactive and non-interactive jobs.
In torque, I'm configuring the nodes with "np=12" and setting up a queue
called "devhost". Then in moab:
CLASSCFG[devhost] QLIST=devhost QDEF=devhost
CLASSCFG[devhost] MAX.WCLIMIT=6048000
CLASSCFG[devhost] NODEACCESSPOLICY=SHARED
QOSCFG[devhost] QFLAGS=USERESERVED:devhost
SRCFG[devhost] ACCESS=DEDICATED CLASSLIST=devhost
SRCFG[devhost] PERIOD=INFINITY
SRCFG[devhost] HOSTLIST=zork22
SRCFG[devhost] QOSLIST=devhost
NODECFG[zork22] ACCESS=SHARED
However, jobs submitted to the "devhost" queue don't run, just sit idle
in the queue:
Node Availability for Partition mercury --------
zork22 rejected: Reserved (rsv devhost required)
zork16 rejected: Reserved (rsv devhost required)
NOTE: job cannot run in partition mercury (idle procs do not meet requirements : 0 of 1 procs found)
idle procs: 13 feasible procs: 0
I'd assumed that I'd configured the QOS or SR incorrectly, but this
configuration works when I set "np=1" on the node.
Has anyone run across this?
Thanks
Michael
