Hmm, we're using that with a recent 3.2.6p9 snapshot and with moab and it 
seems to work OK for us.

Not a lot of help I guess, but at least you're on the right track.  Silly 
question, but you have stopped maui with schedctl -k and restarted it ?

You can check whether it's set or not with "showconfig", on the Maui cluster 
I'm involved with at the moment I get:

# /usr/local/maui/bin/showconfig  | grep JOBNODEMATCH
JOBNODEMATCHPOLICY[0]             EXACTNODE
JOBNODEMATCHPOLICY[1]

Might be worth checking to see if you see the same.

If not it'll be worth increasing the log level and see if you can see any 
evidence of it being read in and/or problems with it.

good luck!
Chris
