I use TORQUE, which I've found has had some differences with SGE (in 
particular, I had to use the 'old-sge' flags to get the sync 
workaround), but it looks like TORQUE has a -t flag that "Specifies the 
task ids of a job array."  Unfortunately I'm still new to using the 
cluster, so I don't know precisely what it does or how it might differ 
from SGE's.
