The magic command for torque configuration is qmgr. Used either as interpreter (interactive and/or stdin redirect) or for running one directive at a time (qmgr -c “directive”). Directives are of the form command server|queue|node [names] [attr OP value[,attr OP value,…]], where command is one of {set, unset, print, create, delete, list}; names is for example the name of the queue, and the attributes are described in the following links for server and queue parameters.

The directive print server (qmgr -c “print server” or qmgr -c “p s”) prints all the server configuration in a format that is just the list of commands that needs to be given to qmgr to reconfigure the server exactly as it is. Example:

[root@licossrv4 maui]# qmgr -c 'p s'
#
# Create queues and set their attributes.
