Hi Dave: For our test case, it seems that if I have d/led PBS from OPD (the RPMs will be copied to /tftpboot/rpm), without selecting PBS, I get an error message complaining about conflict between installation of OpenPBS + Torque. Torque is selected by default, so:
- ask for maui and torque, get pbs (if both pbs + torque are present) I suggest a doc fix for now. I can write something up later today.
