TORQUE 2.1.3 is now officially released. This is a maintenance release
for the stable 2.1-fixes branch. All users are encouraged to upgrade
at their earliest convenience.
http://www.clusterresources.com/downloads/torque/torque-2.1.3.tar.gz
The highlights of this release include:
- 2 crash fixes in pbs_server
- FreeBSD 5.x and 6.x support
- PAM module now builds on OSX, Solaris, and newer Linux distros
- New "max_user_queuable" queue attribute
- Network fixes for HPUX (the infamous pbs_iff problem)
- Build problems on Solaris 10 fixed
- qsub -W umask=
Upgrades from earlier 2.1.x should be painless. The only actual change
in behavior is that jobs in the Completed state (keep_completed is
enabled) won't count against max_queuable.
General instructions for upgrading are in section 1.1.3 at
