Thank you for the quick response.

I've setup three groups, @cpu1hosts, @cpu2hosts, and @cpu5hosts.

The @cpu1hosts consists of the node1* nodes, @cpu2hosts the node2*
nodes, and @cpu5hosts the node5* nodes.

In the default queue I have:

hostlist              @cpu1hosts @cpu2hosts @cpu5hosts

seq_no                1,[@cpu1hosts=10],[@cpu2hosts=20],[@cpu5hosts=50]


In addition to these changes, I had to do "qconf -msconf" and change
"queue_sort_method" from "load" to "seqno".

I believe this is now doing what we want.

Thank you!  :-)
