Hi there,

I need some clarification before screwing up  some files.
I just setup a SGE cluster with a Master + 2 Nodes.

to make it clear let say my cluster name is "default", my master 
headnode is "master", my 2 other nodes are "node1" and "node2"


for EMS :

I opened the default experiment.machines file and I see :

cluster: townhill seville hermes lion seville sannox lutzow frontend
multicore-4: freddie
multicore-8: tyr thor odin crom
multicore-16: saxnot vali vili freyja bragi hoenir
multicore-24: syn hel skaol saga buri loki sif magni
multicore-32: gna snotra lofn thrud

townhill and others are what ? name machines / nodes ? name of several 
clusters ?
should I just put "default" or "master node1 node2" ?

multicore-X: should I put machine names here
if my 3 machines are 8 cores each
multicore-8: master node1 node2
right ?


then in the config file for EMS:

#generic-parallelizer = 
$moses-script-dir/ems/support/generic-parallelizer.perl
#generic-parallelizer = 
$moses-script-dir/ems/support/generic-multicore-parallelizer.perl

which one should  take if my nodes are multicore ? still the first one ?


### cluster settings (if run on a cluster machine)
# number of jobs to be submitted in parallel
#
#jobs = 10
should I count approx 1 job per core on the total cores of my 3 machines ?

# arguments to qsub when scheduling a job
#qsub-settings = ""
can this stay empty ?

# project for priviledges and usage accounting
#qsub-project = iccs_smt
standard value ?

# memory and time
#qsub-memory = 4
#qsub-hours = 48
4 what ? GB ?

### multi-core settings
# when the generic parallelizer is used, the number of cores
# specified here
cores = 4
is this ignored if generic-parallelizer.perl is chosen ?


is there a way to put more load on one specific node ?

Many thanks,
V.
