Regarding job arrays: these are still under development in Torque and are
not feature complete at this time. I've tried to be clear about this in all
my postings to the user and dev mailing list.
note that as of torque 2.3 the syntax for the -t argument will be similar to
SGE:
qsub -t 1-10 will result in a 10 job array. qsub -t 10 will result in a
single job array with an array index of 10. qsub -t 0-9 will give you the
behavior of the old qsub -t 10
I'm almost done the qhold and qrls for entire arrays, and will soon move on
to dependencies for entire arrays. Also job arrays in 2.3 are much more
solid under the hood than they were in 2.2, hopefully the new features will
come quick.</PRE></SPAN></FONT></DIV>
