The above should work but is 'not the grid engine way'.  Generally
one sets grid engine up so that users request the resources they want
(memory,cpu time, wall clock time) and grid engine routes them to an
appropriate queue/host combo.

That looks like it should work.  I'd try a qstat -j on the job to see if the
hard queue_list reflects your request.
