Hi, Betazoids. If you are like me, you've already downloaded the Windows HPC Server 2008 beta (aka CCS V2) and brought it up on some test gear. But if you do a 'job submit /?' you don't see any of the new features like /numnodes documented. Even worse, you can't use them!
Fear not. It's all in there. Use job2 instead of job and you'll get all the goodies we've been waiting for.
