We are also looking at this area. We've looked at PBS Analytics
(expensive for extra licenses on top of our existing PBSPro) and Cluster
Resources MOAB Access Portal (expensive, with a problematic
authentication model).

Uni Dusseldorf have an in-house tool called myJAM which we are hoping to
test in the near future.

The very first script I wrote when we took delivery of our PBSPro
cluster was a tool to output a summary of node use. It will probably
work fine on Torque too. It's not a GUI, but at least it's something.
