[Moabusers] OpenMP with Torque

Hello All,

I sent an email on this topic some days ago, but did not get any  
response. So decided to rephrase my question to see if this invokes  
any response.

When a user requests just 1 CPU for a job (qsub -lnodes=1) and does  
not specify OMP_NUM_THREADS explicitly, and if the node has 4 CPUs,  
does the job get restricted to 1 CPU that was allocated to the user or  
does it spread to the 4 CPUs (if the other CPUs are not taken by other  
jobs)?

My scheduler is Moab, so I am copying Moab users list here too.

Thanks in advance,
Prakash
