Comment (by eschnett):

 A queueing system does not provide MPI processes and OpenMP threads, it
 provides nodes and cores. One has to map these manually, in particular
 when OpenMP is used; the queueing systems' output is usually not good
 enough for this. The respective logic is present in most Simfactory run
 scripts. Simfactory supports over- and under-subscribing, and this works
 fine on most systems (probably on all except BlueGene/P).

 In your case above, most MPI implementations will wrap around, and assign
 the second process to cnode01 as well.
