Comment 4 for bug 360827

After spending a bit of time, more than necessary, I got the server working, but only after a number of times seeing /etc/init.d/torque-server clobbering established node files.

To help others out in the same situation (i.e. people who don't read carefully) I want to clarify the first bug report instructions - particularly that the check for existing serverdb needs to change too:

case "$1" in
  start)
        log_daemon_msg "Starting $DESC"

        if [ ! -r /var/lib/torque/server_priv/serverdb ]; then
                DAEMON_SERVER_OPTS="-t create $DAEMON_SERVER_OPTS"
        fi

In the provided package, the test is for the non-existent /var/spool/torque/server_priv/serverdb file.
