Hi,
I have 2 jobs waiting for 16 proc that will not start due to
"violates active HARD MAXPROC limit of 22 for group"

The cluster has 32 processors,  the basic maui config is:
QUEUETIMEWEIGHT       1
BACKFILLPOLICY        FIRSTFIT
RESERVATIONPOLICY     CURRENTHIGHEST
NODEALLOCATIONPOLICY  CPULOAD
CREDWEIGHT            1
USERWEIGHT            1
GROUPWEIGHT           1
CLASSWEIGHT           1

USERCFG[DEFAULT]      MAXPROC=18
GROUPCFG[DEFAULT]     MAXPROC=22

CLASSCFG[normal]      MAXPROC=22
CLASSCFG[debug]       MAXPROC=30
CLASSCFG[admin]       MAXPROC=32

XFACTOR               1
XFMINWCLIMIT          1440


Both users below are in the same group, hence limited to 22 processors. The hinkle jobs each use 4 proc, run for less than a day and qsub a new job upon their completion. I have been waiting for maui to hold two hinkle jobs and run the at least the 4hour request for 16 proc but it's not happening.

  curie11/1+curie11/0+curie10/1+curie10/0

All I can find for an error is the HARD MAXPROC limit. The priority for job 9354 cycles up in the log and gets reset back to 1 when a hinkle job finished and a new one
gets resubmitted.

Is there somthing obvious I'm missing that explains why the request for 16 proc does not run while three requests for 4 proc continue to cycle thru?
Thanks!
Paul
