Hi All,

I'm trying to set up an SGE queue and am having a problem getting the jobs
to start in the right order.  Here is my example - test.q with 2 possible
slots and the following jobs queued:

job-ID  prior   name       user         state submit/start at
queue                          slots ja-task-ID
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1           0.50000 small.bash joe.borg     qw    01/13/2014
15:43:16                                    1
 2           0.50000 big.bash   joe.borg     qw    01/13/2014
15:43:24                                    2
 3           0.50000 small.bash joe.borg     qw    01/13/2014
15:43:27                                    1
 4           0.50000 small.bash joe.borg     qw    01/13/2014
15:43:28                                    1

I want the jobs to run in that order, but (obviously), when I enable the
queue, the small jobs fill the available slots and the big job has to wait
for them to complete.  I'd like it setup so that only job 1 runs; finishes,
then 2 (with both slots), then the final 2 jobs, 3 & 4, together.

I've looked at -R y on submission, but doesn't seem to work.
