Hi All,
We use a package called "Torque Scheduler" which is based on a
configuration file that defines nodes, the queues they handle, how many
slots, etc. The config file format is similar to:
unlimited <node1> <node2> ... <nodeN>
node <node1> <load> <slots> <queue1>:<priority> <queue2>:<priority> ...
<queueN:priority>
node <node2> <load> <slots> <queue1>:<priority> <queue2>:<priority> ...
<queueN:priority>
...
node <nodeN> <load> <slots> <queue1>:<priority> <queue2>:<priority> ...
<queueN:priority>
(a node may or may not be listed as "unlimited")
We would normally store this file as-is in Puppet and push it out using
file {}, but I'd like to "Puppetize" it. Ideally, I'd like to be able to do
the following:
node { "node1":
unlimited => true,
load => XX,
slots => XX,
queues => {
"queue1" => 80,
"queue2" => 20,
"queueN" => XX
}
}
So basically to build the config file, I'd have to process all the nodes
and where unlimited is true, add to the "unlimited" line.
I know what I want the config file to look like, but I'm not sure how to
achieve this in Puppet. Does this sound like a job for a custom Puppet
provider? I can't figure out how I would build the "unlimited" line over
time.
Can anyone suggest a module that does something similar to this so I can
get some ideas flowing?
Thanks in advance.
Gonzalo
