Well, no. The jobs should not fail. They should go onto PBS instead.
Where do I need to start?

Hi,
If it is only about disabling Fork:

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.

Thanks for the info! I was hunting high and low for documentation for
that! Any crude hacks that could us help achieve that? We want PBS and
not fork for two reasons:
1) We don't want jobs running on the headnode.
2) Our accounting mechanism is integrated with PBS.
Migrating to 4.2 is not an option at the moment as it's not
backward-compatible with 4.0.x which our sister sites are using currently.

Hi,
This feature is not supported in the 4.0 series. It's not something
that can be configured, but it required code changes.

Dear all,
On our site, we are running gt4.0.8. We want to disable fork and set
PBS as the default local resource manager. We were able to find
documentation to do so in gt4.2 but not gt4.0. Any suggestions on how
we can implement it on gt4.0?
