A little more info. After moving the spool directory and re-starting the qmaster, I deleted all the jobs with qdel and the qmaster showed no jobs. However, after a further re-start it now shows over 2396 active jobs, with "-2251" available slots. I assume that somehow the history of jobs finishing was lost so the qmaster thinks the jobs are still active. I am trying another delete!
