That was a big help. After dumping both the queues and execution hosts
this way it was easy to delete
the bogus queues and relatively easy to delete the one bogus host entry
(after running down everything
else that referenced it). (Bogus host because the address now points
to a machine of a different type.)
The only major complication was that this doesn't quite work:
qconf -se hostname >foo
qconf -Ae foo
there are things -se writes that -Ae won't consume. After editing out
the "processors" and
"load_values" lines in foo -Ae was happy.
