[torqueusers] MOM log file rotation

[Joshua Bernstein]

Hi,

	I really like the way that pbs_mom handles log files by naming them 
with the date, and then automatically rotating them when the date changes.

	I have a few comments though:

1) I see that pbs_mom takes -L option to override the log file location, 
but if the argument to -L is a directory, then log creation fails.

2) If I specify an argument to -L, then pbs_mom no longer manages the 
file by naming it correctly, and properly rotating it.

It would be a nice if when the argument to -L is a directory, pbs_mom 
simply uses that directory and manages the logs as it would if there was 
no -L argument.

I could try and supply a patch to 2.1.8 to attempt to do this, but I'm 
not sure the implications this would have to binaries like tracejob and 
other accounting systems, such as the Moab tools.

Thoughts?
