Hmm, I'm not quite sure what you mean. How come /serial/ batch jobs wait in the batch.q queue without being started on the interactive.q, whereas by parallel (smp) jobs get scheduled to the interactive.q? Moreover, I can submit my job as a vanilla serial job and it waits in batch.q as expected. If I submit it as -pe smp 1, then it get scheduled to the interactive.q. Is this really expected behaviour?
