It's a way to submit a bunch of jobs that are identical from grid engine's POV 
as a single job.  This lightens the load on the scheduler
and means qstat normally only reports a single queued job.  Probably what the 
user who caused your original issue should have submitted.

Nice! :-)

And the tasks in the array jobs can get running in parallel or they
always run in serial?

Yes grid engine can run multiple tasks from the same array job at the same 
time.  Unlike parallel jobs tasks they
won't be synchronised and won't know about each other.  In recent verison of 
grid engine there
is a qsub flag that lets the user limit the number of tasks from a given array 
job that will run simultaneously.

hehehe.. I like array jobs!! :-)
I'll prepare some examples and extend the simple documentation I made some years ago for my users! ;-)

Thank you very much and best regards.
