[Swift-user] Node specification for local PBS/Torque provider

Hi,

I was unable to find the details on how nodes should be specified when
local PBS provider is used.

With sequential jobs, I am able to use GLOBUS attribute maxWallTime.
When I am trying to request multiple nodes, I tried to specify the
number with the host_types and host_count attributes, but each time I
am getting only one node, and also PBS_-variables (like PBS_NODEFILE)
are not defined on that single allocated node.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks
