Hi Einat,

Yes, I think thats the default behavior.  But please feel free to give
it a try and verify that it does what you want.  Its easy enough to
submit testing jobs and then kill them with "qdel".

I don't know of a reliable way of keeping things on the scratch disks.
If you really need reliable storage, then you'll have to look into other
options (eg. "scp"-ing it to other machines).

That said, the system is lightly loaded at the moment and it seems
unlikely that anything would be deleted between now and early Jan.
