Hi,

I seem to be bitten by this again:

04/26/2012 18:20:01|  main|cumulus|E|can't create queue "MSBI": host 
"vubuntu054" is not known
04/26/2012 18:20:02|  main|cumulus|I|read job database with 21 entries in 1 
seconds
04/26/2012 18:20:02|  main|cumulus|C|!!!!!!!!!! got NULL element for EH_name 
!!!!!!!!!!

This time I started the machine again, it is pingable 
and resolvable by /usr/lib/gridengine/gethostbyname + byaddr,
but qmaster still won't start. 

We're on SGE6.2u5 running on Ubuntu10.04, 
with spool in berkelydb. Databases are valid. 
Any more ideas ? 

Yours,
Steffen
