[torqueusers] Associating a queue with specific nodes

[Anne Hammond]

Thanks to Mike Renfro for detailing how to associate a queue
with specific nodes.

But this doesn't seem to work as documented, or as Mike describes
it.

We are running torque and maui.  nodes23-46 are associated with
queue s3opt24, but submitting a job to this queue assigns node22:

# Create queues and set their attributes.
#
#
# Create and define queue s3opt24
#
create queue s3opt24
set queue s3opt24 queue_type = Execution
set queue s3opt24 max_running = 1
set queue s3opt24 acl_host_enable = False
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts = node39
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node29
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node38
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node28
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node37
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node27
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node46
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node36
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node26
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node45
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node35
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node25
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node44
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node34
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node24
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node43
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node33
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node23
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node42
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node32
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node41
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node31
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node40
set queue s3opt24 acl_hosts += node30
set queue s3opt24 resources_max.nodect = 24
set queue s3opt24 resources_default.nodect = 1
set queue s3opt24 max_user_run = 1
set queue s3opt24 enabled = True
set queue s3opt24 started = True
Qmgr:

#!/bin/sh
#PBS -N soc_v
#PBS -l nodes=2:ppn=1

.....
qsub -q s3opt24 qsub.sh
....
Output file: (something else is wrong, but this shows that torque
has assigned node22:

--------------------------------------
Running torque epilogue script

Cleaning node node22
Cleaning node node22
Done
-------------------------------------

We only want nodes23-46 assigned/associated with the s3opt24 queue.
I understand that this can be done with moab, but
http://www.clusterresources.com/products/mwm/docs/12.1nodelocation.shtml#open

indicates it can also be accomplished using torque.

Is the documentation wrong, or is something misconfigured above?

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
