I made sure that no 2 schedulers are running at the same time. So unfortunately that is not the issue. I am stuck with using properties in server_priv/nodes and submitting jobs with "-l nodes=1:property". At the moment this is an acceptable workaround since the property scales 1:1 to the processors. But once I need _1_ resource per machine and not per cpu this approach will not work any more. qsub -W -x="GRES:resname" will just not work here. Does anyone have another idea what I might have missed? -- Michael - LIP Grid Admins _______________________________________________ mauiusers mailing list [email protected] http://www.supercluster.org/mailman/listinfo/mauiusers
