[gridengine users] nodes in alarm

[Marty Dippel]

SGE Newbie question-

When I "qstat -f" a few of the nodes return an "a" state, which I
believe means the node is in alarm.


queuename                      qtype used/tot. load_avg arch          states

1. What's the best way for me to discover the cause of the alarm state?

2. Once a node is in alarm, will it reset by itself when the condition
is corrected or will it require human intervention to clear this state?
