Hi All,

Thanks a lot for your valuable suggestions. I just solved the problem by
limiting h_vmem value on qconf -mq.

Best,
Edrisse

Hi, All.

When you enable h_vmem, make sure to watch out for h_stack, too.
Otherwise, your programs may fail to start, particularly Matlab and
Python for me.

$ qsub -l h_vmem=2G -l h_stack=128M myjob.sh

Cheers.

As far as I know, you have to define a memory consumable in each host, and
reserve it when submit a process to SGE, e.g. qsub -l h_vmem=2G.  Otherwise,
machines memory could start swapping and then crash the machine. Also, this
way, the server also kills those process than consume more memory than
was reserved.

Excerpts from Edrisse Chermak's message of 2013-10-07 16:25:48 +0200:
Dear Grid Engine developers and users,

I would like to prevent jobs running when node memory is almost filled.
Here is the typical situation I have:

'qhost':
================================================================
HOSTNAME                ARCH         NCPU  LOAD  MEMTOT  MEMUSE
----------------------------------------------------------------
global                  -               -     -       -       -
node1                  linux-x64      64  12.00  52.4G    42.8G
node2                  linux-x64      64  24.00  52.4G    12.8G
===============================================================

The memory on node1 is almost filled, so I would like the new job I'll
launch to go on node2. (provided that the job I want to launch requires
2 CPUs and that I configured np_load_avg=0.80, so that CPU load doesn't
matter here).

note : I'm using ge2011.1

Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
Edrisse
