[Mauiusers] Questions regarding "tasks" and the cfg file.

[Michael Homa]

> out of curiosity, if you remove the lines you singled out in your first
email from your maui.cfg (nodecfg[argo17-1] and classcfg[dedicated]) which
you think may be causing the problem, does the system then work?

Same result. I submitted a new job, 318:

318  mhoma    dedicate hello_worl    --      1   6    --  00:30 Q   -- --

job cannot run in partition DEFAULT (idle procs do not meet requirements :
0 of 6 procs found)
idle procs:  28  feasible procs:   0

Rejection Reasons: [CPU          :    1][HostList     :    6]

Detailed Node Availability Information:

argo17-1                 rejected : CPU
argo17-2                 rejected : HostList
argo17-3                 rejected : HostList
argo17-4                 rejected : HostList
argo18-1                 rejected : HostList
argo18-2                 rejected : HostList
argo18-3                 rejected : HostList
