Hello, I have heard of the temporary directory issue before, but we run a very small number of MPI applications and none of them have this problem.
I would move away from our current multi-queue setup if there was a viable alternative that meets our needs. In particular we need to limit available resources based on run time while still allowing very short jobs (including MPI jobs) to utilize all of the available resources. If there are other (better supported) ways to achieve these goals then I would appreciate some pointers. Thanks, Brendan ________________________________________ From: Dave Love,,, [d.l...@liverpool.ac.uk] Sent: Monday, September 16, 2013 3:01 PM To: Brendan Moloney Cc: users@gridengine.org Subject: Re: [gridengine users] Problems with multi-queue parallel jobs Brendan Moloney <molo...@ohsu.edu> writes: > Hello, > > I use multiple queues to divide up available resources based on job > run times. Large parallel jobs will typically span multiple queues and > this has generally been working fine thus far. I'd strongly recommend avoiding that. Another reason is possible trouble due to the temporary directory name being derived from the queue name. (I changed that but had some odd failures when I introduced it, so it's not in the current version, and I haven't had a chance to go back and figure out why.) -- Community Grid Engine: http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/ _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@gridengine.org https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
