+==== New Configuration ====
+(May 2011)
+Barring some minor work (involving 4 imw nodes and queue elw), all queues are now available for job submissions via the login nodes greentail and swallowtail; both nodes service all queues. Login node sharptail has been decomissioned, and login node petaltail will only perform administrative functions.
+Our total jobslots is now 638 of which 384 are on infiniband (queues hp12 and imw, the former much faster).  These queues should be the target for parallel computations.  Queue ehwfd should be the target for jobs needing fast local scratch space.  Queue bss24 should be the target for large ethernet parallel jobs (queue offers 1 TB memory footprint). Matlab and Stata jobs should be submitted to their respective queues on greentail (license restrictions).
+Also, I suggest staging your data and programs in /sanscratch/JOBPID and copy the results back to your home directory as the last step in your job (scheduler will erase /sanscratch/JOBPID).  This file system is a different set of disks than the disks serving /home.
