Yes, this error is systematic in the last few weeks, see archives.

I wasn't sure you were talking to me.  :-)

Icinga have graphs, but they're uptime-related.  The place with the
pretty graphics is ganglia:

http://ganglia.wmflabs.org/latest/?c=tools

But there is no queued/running job graph right now.  It's a very good
idea though, and I'll add the matching instrumentation.

BTW, is the "Queue State" on
http://munin.toolserver.org/Miscellaneous/turnera/index.html#sge
the number of queued jobs?  Mark, is there something Munin-

If you need user database access on s3 you simple add -l sql-s3-user=1.
If you rise the number of db-resources replag must be lower to get your
job scheduled (e.g. -l sql-s3-user=3 currently gets only scheduled if
replag is below 1 hour).

deadline option is not available on toolserver. -p mainly changes to
priority compared to other jobs of yourself. For the global scheduling
order job waiting time and used server resources by your user account in
the last hours is more important.

Webserver requests which are also causing much database queries are high
at 14-23 UTC workdays. Most sge jobs are submittet between 0-3 UTC.


Thank you for the explanations to all. They could be used to improve the 
documentaion for SGE.


BTW I can use the whole cluster, as I made this little script to start 
my compiled C programs:


#!/bin/sh
ARCH=`uname`
PROG=$1
shift
/home/byrial/bin/$ARCH/$PROG $@

What Tim mean is that, by default, SGE will schedule your job when
sufficient resources are effectively available, rather that trying to
predict when that will happen.

That said, you /can/ specify both a minimal starting time (with -a) and
a deadline (with -dl) creating a "window" during which SGE will try to
run your job but, in general, it's easier and more reliable to let the
gridengine pick the time.

If your objective is to have your job run only when few others are
trying to use the resources, you can also lower its priority (with -p)
so that it will only execute your job when there isn't anything "better"
to run.

Well, no. SGE cannot know if I want the job run as early as possible or 
if I can happily wait for several hours for a less busy part of the day, 
unless there is some option I can use to tell that.

It will do that by itself, in fact, it is its whole pur-

| timl@yarrow:~$ perl -we 'my $t = rand (24 * 60); printf "%d:%02d\n", $t / 60,

[Toolserver-l] When is the best time of day to run programs?

2013-04-10 Thread Byrial Jensen

Hi,

I am planning to make some maintenace reports for the Danish Wikipedia 
at regular intervals, like once a week or once every few days, but the 
exact time to run the programs doesn't really matter.


So what time of the day is it best to run such programs?

And is there a way to tell SGE that it may choose the most convenient 
time to start to job?
