You could use something like: su torque /usr/local/sbin/maui or su - torque /usr/local/sbin/maui I actually prefer to not have maui start automatically on boot, and start it by hand. I've found that when the server needs rebooting, something is usually wrong, and its best to make sure that the cluster is OK and the filesystems are up and running, the network is fine, etc before the batch system starts running jobs. Even if you forget to start it, someone will soon let you know that you forgot :) To me, its better to not run jobs than to have tons of jobs run and fail. -mb -- +----------------------------------------------- | Michael Barnes | | Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility | 12000 Jefferson Ave. | Newport News, VA 23606 | (757) 269-7634 +----------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ mauiusers mailing list mauiusers@supercluster.org http://www.supercluster.org/mailman/listinfo/mauiusers
