Appendix K: torque.cfg File

parameter format default description
ALLOWCOMPUTEHOSTSUBMIT <BOOLEAN> FALSE If true, the server will trust job submit requests coming from compute nodes even if these nodes are not listed in hosts.equiv
QSUBHOST <HOSTNAME> none Specify the hostname where pbs_mom will find qsub for interactive jobs.
QSUBSLEEP <INT> 0 Specifies time to sleep when running qsub command, used to prevent users from overwhelming the scheduler.
SERVERHOST <STRING> localhost If set, the server will open socket connections and communicate with client commands and other services using the specified network interface. (useful with multi-homed hosts, i.e., nodes with multiple network adapters)
SUBMITFILTER <STRING> /usr/local/sbin/torque_submitfilter Specifies the location of the submit filter used to pre-process job submission.
SUBMITHOSTS <HOSTNAME>[{ ,:}<HOSTNAME>]... login1.ucc.edu,login2.ucc.edu Specifies hosts which should be allowed to submit jobs without host validation using the ruserok() routine.  This parameter can be used in conjunction with the ALLOWCOMPUTEHOSTSUBMIT parameter so that only non-compute hosts need to be explicitly specified.


The torque.cfg file should be placed in the TORQUE home directory (i.e., /usr/spool/PBS).
