You are not allowed to do any computation on the gateway nodes. Mostly they are there as a firewall and a place to check and submit jobs. Many users find it annoying to log into gateway and then have to immediately log into one of the dev nodes. Although I have not tested it thoughouly, you can add the following script to the beginning of your .bash_profile file and it will automaticlly log you into a random dev node. Give it a try:

if [ "$HOSTNAME" == "gateway-01" ]; then
        /opt/software/powertools/bin/dev
fi
