Please note ,

- Qlist should be added to the $PBS\_HOME/sched\_priv/sched\_config 's resources: line  
resources: “ncpus,aoe,vnodes, …,Qlist”

- Once the sched\_config is modified, kill -HUP \< PID of the PBS Scheduler \>

- Qlist is a host-level and hence it should be part of the chunk statement as below

qsub -l select=1:ncpus=1:mem=10mb:Qlist=n24 – /bin/sleep 100

> [@runapp](#):

> #PBS -N test-hold-128 #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=24 #PBS -l Qlist=n24\_128 #PBS -q maintaince ##PBS -l Qqueue=maintaince sleep 10000000

Should be updated to

```
#PBS -N test-hold-128
#PBS -l select=1:ncpus=24:Qlist=n24_128
#PBS -q maintaince
/bin/sleep 1000000

```

Thank you
