Thanks Gareth
By adding touch a file called nologin in /etc I restricted the users
from logging into the nodes. I think went into my config file and added
this:
JOBCFG
<http://www.clusterresources.com/products/mwm/docs/a.fparameters.shtml#jobcfg>[no_inter]
FLAGS=interactive
RMCFG <http://www.clusterresources.com/products/mwm/docs/a.fparameters.shtml#rmcfg>[gridA.in] MAX.JOB <http://www.clusterresources.com/products/mwm/docs/13.2rmconfiguration.shtml#max.job>=no_inter
Now my users cannot use the -I command when submitting jobs. I will take
this away as soon as there are interactive nodes available.
Thanks for all the help.

I would like to restrict users from interactively logging on to compute
nodes. How do I set this so that users cannot run this command:
qsub -I -l nodes=20:ppn=4
Hi Emmanuel,
I've seen this discussed before on torqueusers (I think) - which is probably a more appropriate forum. I believe there is no sure way of doing what you want. You could use the torque qsub submit_filter to reject such jobs but this would be readily subverted. I guess you could even totally disable
'-I' one way or another but you are probably kidding yourself that it is really solving any problem.
Perhaps you need to monitor and educate. Ultimately you may need to lock out
recalcitrant users.
Cheers,
Gareth
