[torqueusers] Re: Persuading Maui to Run a Job

[pat.o'bryant at exxonmobil.com]

     After reading the Maui documentation on the Web, I edited my 
"maui.cfg" file that was created by "genpbs". The line I changed 
originally read -

RMCFG[HOSTA] TYPE=PBS at RMNMHOST@

    I changed the line to read -

RMCFG[HOSTA] TYPE=PBS 

    Now, Maui is working. I am sure that RMNMHOST is some kind of 
environment variable that has not been set. I guess I will root around 
until I figure out why "genpbs" did not set it.

Persuading Maui to Run a Job





     I am new to Torque/Maui. After installing both on a Linux system and 
running "genpbs", I submitted a very simple job that displays the hostname 
where the job runs. The job remained in a "Q" state according to "qstat 
-a". After several attempts to get things going, I decided to stop the 
Maui scheduler and use the default PBS scheduler. After re-submitting my 
job to the PBS scheduler, everything ran as expected. Is there some secret 
to get Maui to select a job. One guess I had was to specify the Maui port 
number in "/etc/services" as "pbs_sched         tcp/42559".
     Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
