Appendix C: Adding New Algorithms with the "Local" Interface

Moab Workload Manager allows you to add your own routines to provide a local interface. The following routines have stubs in MLocal.c:

Routine	Description
MLocalAdjustActiveJobStats	Adjust job statistics
MLocalCheckFairnessPolicy	Enforce a new job fairness policy
MLocalInitialize	Initialize scheduler system
MLocalJobAllocateResources	Per node job allocation algorithm
MLocalJobCheckNRes	Filter nodes by job reservation
MLocalJobDistributeTasks	Task to processor mapping algorithm
MLocalJobInit	Initialize a job
MLocalNodeGetPriority	Adjust node allocation priority based on local parameters
MLocalNodeInit	Initialize a node
MLocalJobPostStart	Called after a job has started
MLocalJobPreStart	Called before a job starts
MLocalQueueScheduleIJobs	Priority scheduling algorithm
MLocalReqCheckResourceMatch	Filter nodes by job requirements

If using either a source or binary release of Moab, to integrate local changes, modify the src/moab/MLocal.c file and issue make install.
