Something is very wrong - there can only be one orted on each node. Having two orteds on the same node for the same job guarantees that things will become confused and generally fail.
I don't know enough SGE to advise you what's wrong with your job script, but it looks like OMPI thinks there are two completely different sets of nodes that are actually the same.
