It is certainly an intended feature, William. Always was since load
sensor were introduced in the late 90s.
The thought behind it was that you might have central system management
services which maintain host level information. You can then put the
load sensor on the system management server instead of having 1000s of
hosts query it. But you can use it for other stuff as well, of course.
Cheers,
Fritz

It appears that you can have load sensors report values for individual hosts
other than the one on which it runs. I've tested this by having a load sensor
run on one host report different values for two different hosts and used qhost
-F to verify that gridengine reports them.
The possibility of doing this is implied by the format of load sensor reports
but I've never seen it explicitly documented as possible or used elsewhere.
Being able to use this would simplify certain aspects of the configuration of
our production cluster so it would be useful to know if this is intended
behavior
and therefore something I can rely on or an implementation quirk.
Opinions?
