Actually... taking a closer look now- that does appear to be normal. And I've got similar sizes on my own servers, but a larger /var. ;-) In fact, it's writing out something on the order of 5MB per day on a 64 node cluster. I don't want to mandate use of logrotate in the package, as some users may need older logs. I'll look into making it a configurable option in a future release.

Then there probably is something wrong with my my system. It's only a modest 8
nodes cluster and so far it's only used to run some fortran pogram using
MPICH. So honestly I'm still quite ignorant what PBS do / for anyway. But the
/var/spool/pbs/server_logs has about 1.2 GB logs over less then a year period
of time. Is that normal at all?


There is one file everyday, and each file will be filled with logs similar to
this:

Any help? Thanks for responding.
