Hi Stephen Looking at torque.spec file for SL6 build of torque-2.5.9 at fedora repo (dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/SRPMS/repoview/torque.html ), it seems that it is setting TORQUE_HOME to /var/lib/torque since torque-2.5.4 release. So for SL5 build epel build is using /var/spool for TORQUE_HOME and for SL6 it is using /var/lib. I don't know the reason behind it. On the other note which might be interesting for other peoples as well, we were having a lot of problem with torque-2.5.7 at Oxford and it kept crashing almost every 12 hour. The main issue was that it opened a lot of munge file and didn't close it properly. We build a torque-2.5.12 rpm and used epel 2.5.7 spec file with few changes. Since then torque server didn't crash a single time.

And guess what? Torque (2.5.7-9) winds up in /var/lib/torque/ And, what's more, it's actually in /etc/torque/, with soft links from /var/lib/torque to /etc/torque/ The thing's jumping around all over the flippin' place. It's a nuisance here at L'pool, because we share as single torque server with several CREAMs. Anybody got any tips? As things stand, I have to fit in new links to make it work.
