[torqueusers] PBS_NODEFILE: Undefined variable.

[Sreedhar Manchu]

Hi Ken,

This morning I did few more test runs and found out it's #PBS -V in script that's causing problems. Whenever I include it I'm seeing this error.

I think it's trying to look for this variable in user's exported environment rather than looking into variables defined by it self. Everything works fine if I take -V off the script. 

But the problem is some users need to mention this in their scripts to export not only user defined variables but also system variables such as LD_LIBRARY_PATH. 

Is there a way to fix it? Now I'll do some more tests to see we have same problem with other pbs variables such as PBS_O_WORKDIR etc. 

Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I will send another email once I do more testing. 

Thanks
Sreedhar.
