This is a problem for your PSB administrator- it should clean up after rogue jobs. That said, you could simplify your ``run xplor'' statement for your case to make this more bulletproof. Change it to $XPLOR $PY -parallel -o $LOGFILE $XPLOR_SCRIPT if you really only want a single process running. If you have a cluster with 2-cpus per node, and your PBS daemon allocates one job per node (as is the case here at NIH), there will be an idle CPU if you make the changes above. hope this helps-- Charles -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.8 <http://mailcrypt.sourceforge.net/> iD8DBQFFuMawPK2zrJwS/lYRAs5zAJ96sswLYfmwFs1zq9IFottj+iDmhwCfRdSQ 3Zd6JSdj5tlUf3GbJuM2T1E= =fTy2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
