Thanks for the reply, William.

Yes, that's true.

It's a pity there's not a way to reset gridengine to begin anew on a new
database for example.

It seems quite a radical step to have to re-install gridengine just because
of the database. Decidedly unmodular. But, I suppose, that's the nature of
Berkeley DB ... I do however miss the stressing of this point in the
documentation. Oh well, my turn to do it now, I expect. Cheers!

Any other suggestions are still welcome!
