From the logs, it looks like both jobs ran on compute-1-7.

Looking at the logs on compute-1-7 in /var/spool/PBS, I don't see anything
unusual - but I'm not sure what something "bad" would look like.

It looks like the jobs ended around noon today - 2208 at 12:48 and 2209 at
11:49.  The logs show a Type 54 (PBS_BATCH_Copyfiles) and type 6
(PBS_BATCH_DeleteJob) request from the PBS server at the same time as the
jobs ended.  The entries in the logs like just like other job ending entries
I found in the logs.  The PBS temp directories for the jobs are gone from
/tmp so it looks like PBS cleaned up after the jobs.
