Hi,

I am trying to get core-binding working with not too much luck. I am
testing with grid engine 2011.11 running in debian x86_64

When I run "loadcheck -cb" in any exec nodes I get this:

[pescobar][fry][/opt/soft/sge/utilbin/linux-x64]$ ./loadcheck -cb
Your SGE uses hwloc for core binding functionality!
Amount of sockets: 2
Amount of cores: 8
Topology: SCCCCSCCCC

but when I submit a job with any of these combinations it doesn´t work:

$> qsub -binding set linear:1 -b y stress --cpu 1
$> qsub -binding set linear:1 -pe smp 1 -b y stress --cpu 1
$> qsub -binding set linear_automatic:1 -b y stress --cpu 1
$> qsub -binding set linear_automatic:1 -pe smp 1 -b y stress --cpu 1

I always get this in qstat (look at the NONE)

[pescobar][fry][/opt/soft/sge/utilbin/linux-x64]$ qstat -cb -j 5134 |grep
bind
binding:                    set linear:1
binding    1:               NONE

I tried to do some testing in a SGE6.2u5 running in SLES x86_64 where I
have access too which also replies that core binding functionality is
available when running "loadcheck -cb" but I get the same output in qstat.

¿maybe I am missing something in the config? Reading at docs it seems that
no longer is needed to enable the ""ENABLE_BINDING=true" in the exec_nodes,
isn´t is?

I would appreciate any help or suggestion about what more I could check to
get core_binding working.
many thanks in advance.
Pablo.
