SGE does not support the gathering of resources prior to runtime to
ensure that the code runs at the time requested (advanced reservations).
It does support the running of code at a requested time, and if at that
time the job does not have enough resources it will aggressively gather
those resources until it can run (reservations).
What time was the job scheduled to run? I thought that the priority
for jobs with reservations stays zero until after the start time has passed.
