Login and cast a vote for this issue case if you think it’s a big deal. Looks like it is trivial to drop in new icons so the work falls to finding a free set with agreeable license terms or someone rolling their own.
RHEL5 is out and Göran recently passed this heads-up warning to the developers mailing list:
It might be worth mentioning that this won’t work any more for people
using the i386 variant of RHEL5. The pre-compiled i386 qmon uses
libXm.so.2 (Openmotif 2.1) which is no longer available in RHEL5.It is not a problem for x86_64 RHEL5. The pre-compiled x86_64 qmon
uses libXm.so.3 (Openmotif 2.2) which is still available in RHEL5 as a
compatibility package. (Openmotif 2.3 is the default.)
For i386 arch users of RHEL it looks like getting the ‘qmon’ GUI to work may require building from source or installing a third-party OpenMotif 2.1 compatible RPM.
With patches supplied by Hin-Tak Leung (more on Hin-Tak in a later article), the following useful enhancements to the X11 ‘qmon’ binary have been added to the CVS repository for inclusion in the next 6.0u10 release:
Custom Widths
Default:
Customized:
The first screenshot shows the default layout for the Qmon Job Control pane. The 2nd screenshot shows the new column sizing and layout customized by altering options listed in a personal ~/Qmon preference file. In the cusomized layout, the job name field has been greatly expanded and the Job ID column width has been slightly decreased. A new sliding bar allows access to the columns that can not be displayed with the pane.
Adding Host details to the Cluster Queue pane
Default:
Enhanced:
The first screenshot shows the default layout for the Qmon Cluster Queue pane, note that there are only two tabs available within the pane: “Cluster Queues” and “Queue Instances“. The second screenshot shows the activation of a third tab named “Hosts”

Details: How to enable these changes
Both enhancements are controlled by per-user ~/Qmon preference files. To customize the column widths in the Job Control pane, use and adjust the following settings:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! job configuration settings !! Qmon*job_form*columnWidths: nr of characters per column for !! the first 6 cols !! Qmon*job_form*visibleColumns: nr of visible columns (without scrollbar) !! if the column sizes shall be bigger this can !! be lowered to show only the first n cols and !! the rest can be reached with the horizontal !! scrollbar !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Qmon*job_form*columnWidths: 12,8,10,10,7,16 Qmon*job_form*visibleColumns: 6
To enable the additional Host tab within the Cluster Queue pane, add the following details to your ~/Qmon preference file, changing the values from FALSE to TRUE:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! show the Host tab in Queue Configuration !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Qmon*showHostTab: FALSE Qmon*automaticUpdateHostTab: FALSE
