Hi list, I am wondering if there is a plugin allowing to submit jobs via SystemD (I.e. using systemd-run) on exec nodes.
I have actually modified SGE sources to offer this option (available at https://github.com/daimh/sge) and it works quite well. The advantages are: - we let systemd to track and manage job (jobs are started as services) so do not have to do it ourselves. - we use systemd to get job stats (cpu/mem usage etc) - we let systemd to manage cgroups for us (which means cgroups v2 can be nicely supported this way) Disadvantages: - it expects SystemD (I.e. Linux only) is installed on all exec clients - minimal version we can live with is SystemD 230, for best results 240 or newer. Anyone interested? Cheers, Ondrej
