I don't know "adexl" - is there an option to specify any arbitrary command line option to the `qsub` command - how is this defined? - you could use a wrapper to `qsub` - you could use a JSV, which whenever a queue is selected (how do you do this right now?), the checkpoint environment is requested too - you could use a default options file for jobs submitted form a certain directory (`man qsub` => "ge_request", actually it's ".sge_request" for the users' files besides the system wide global "sge_request" one) > I was thinking I should be able to define a default checkpoint environment > for a particular queue, but that doesn't seem to be possible.

The definition in the queue makes the checkpoint environment only available to the queue, but you can also submit jobs to the queue without requesting the checkpoint environment. A forced checkpoint environment does not exist (sure, this could be an RFE - but making the calendar complex forced is not working in the way I expected too). BTW: When you use the checkpoint environment, maybe you don't need any means any longer to select a particular queue, as the checkpoint environment is attached to the queue only where it should run anyway. -- Reuti > Thanks, > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > [email protected] > https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
