 When using Torque/MAUI, the default plugin provided with gLite to retrieve the number of job slots configured and the number of free slots is using Torque. This doesn't allow to reflect correctly a configuration where advanced MAUI features like ''standing reservations'' are used. An alternative plugin, based on MAUI, is available and distributed with QWG templates (even though it is totally independent). To use this MAUI-based plugin instead of the Torque-based one, define the following variable in your [source:templates/trunk/sites/example/site/glite/config.tpl gLite parameters] (this variable is ignored if the LRMS used in not Torque):

 This variable is `true` by default in QWG templates. Set it to `false` if you want to use the standard plugin.

 Another specific feature provided by QWG templates with respect to CE publishing into the BDII is the ability to run plugins in charge of updating CE dynamic information as a cron job on the LRMS host and to cache their outputs for later use by GIP itself. This is generally necessary in a multiple CE configuration and this is mandatory with MAUI-based plugins when using Torque/MAUI as MAUI commands can be executed only on the MAUI server. This ''cache mode'' is also lowering the polling rate on the batch system and protects again temporary failure of the LRMS to respond to the inquiry command (this is quite usual with MAUI when it is overloaded). To activate this feature, you need to define the following variable in your [source:templates/trunk/sites/example/site/glite/config.tpl gLite parameters]:
