[torqueusers] Number of running jobs

[Colin.Doherty at sungard.com]

I haven't seen a reply to this and am keen to know if there is anything I need to do regarding dual cores. We are currently setting up a MOAB scheduler and we also have dual core CPUs. Is there something I should know, please ??
 
Many thanks,
 
Colin Doherty

Subject: [torqueusers] Number of running jobs



I am using Torque 2.0.0p8-3 and maui.  I have two client nodes running. One has 4 dual-core AMD CPUs (total 8 logic CPUs). The other host has 2 dual-core CPUs (total 4 logic CPUs). I use qsub to submit serial jobs and can only have maximum 6 jobs running simultaneously.  I expect the cluster to run 12 jobs.  I tried a few things using "qmgr" to change some of the parameters. It was not successful.  This problem probably has something to do with dual-core CPU. 

 

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Many thanks!

 

 

Here is what I get if I do "print server" from qmgr.

create queue workq

set queue workq queue_type = Execution

set queue workq max_running = 12

set queue workq resources_max.cput = 10000:00:00

set queue workq resources_max.ncpus = 12

set queue workq resources_max.nodect = 2

set queue workq resources_max.walltime = 10000:00:00

set queue workq resources_min.cput = 00:00:01

set queue workq resources_min.nodect = 1

set queue workq resources_min.walltime = 00:00:01

set queue workq resources_default.cput = 10000:00:00

set queue workq resources_default.ncpus = 1

set queue workq resources_default.nodect = 1

set queue workq resources_default.walltime = 10000:00:00

set queue workq resources_available.nodect = 2

set queue workq max_user_run = 12

set queue workq enabled = True

set queue workq started = True

#

# Set server attributes.

#

set server scheduling = True

set server default_queue = workq

set server log_events = 64

set server mail_from = adm

set server query_other_jobs = True

set server resources_available.ncpus = 12

set server resources_available.nodect = 2

set server resources_available.nodes = 2

set server resources_max.ncpus = 12

set server resources_max.nodes = 2

set server scheduler_iteration = 60

set server node_check_rate = 150

set server tcp_timeout = 6

set server pbs_version = 2.0.0p8
