Problem: sm_qm_main log showed 'No running job > release resource 46' due to check_que_and_pending_jobs() is called a 2nd time with mode 'idle' where allocation is released. Solution: Do not release allocation for permanent allocated resources
BUGFIX: (#25949) FSCK on an Si3 on an RDS does not work, File '...\sm_common.py', line 486, in sm_popen (IOError: [Errno 0] Error).
