Hi,
If it is only about disabling Fork:
http://tinyurl.com/czo6kb
All jobs that go to Fork will then result in an error:
'The Managed Job Factory Service at
https://dadada:8443/wsrf/services/ManagedJobFactoryService
does not have a resource with key "Fork".'
This does not yet set PBS as default local resource manager though.
Is this enough?
Otherwise we'd need to hack.
