Guys,

Many thanks for your replies. It has been confirmed by Torque people that the version 2.5.x has this limitation and they are recommending to upgrade it to 4.2.x.

Hi Qamar

I don't have a cluster as large as yours,
but I know Torque requires special settings for large
clusters:

http://www.clusterresources.com/torquedocs21/a.flargeclusters.shtml

My tm_.h (Torque 2.4.11) says:

#define TM_ESYSTEM  17000
#define TM_ENOEVENT  17001
#define TM_ENOTCONNECTED 17002

and TM_ESYSTEM may be sent back by pbs_mom (see mom_comm.c)
if it cannot start the user process.

Have you tried to launch a simple "hostname" command with pbsdsh
on >600 nodes?

Diskless/stateless nodes, if you have them, may present another
challenge (say, regarding /tmp):

I hope this helps,

Check the torque error constants - i'm not sure what that value means,
but torque is reporting the error. all we do is print out the value they
return if it is an error

Dear Support,

We are having an issue with our OMPI runs. When we run jobs on <=550
machines (550 x 16 cores) then they work without any problem. As soon
as we run them on 600 or more machines we get the "plm:tm: failed to
spawn daemon, error code = 17000" Error

We are using:

OpenMPI ver: 1.6.4 (Compiled with GCC v4.4.6)
Torque ver: 2.5.12

The ompi_info's output is attached.


The Environmentstats have been pasted below.


Please assist.
