[gridengine users] Rocks 5.4: Terminate Non-SGE Jobs on Compute Nodes by Normal Users

2011-08-19 Thread Gowtham
In some of the computing clusters across our campus, we have noticed many users running their jobs outside of the SGE queuing system. While we have plans to continue tutoring them about the benefits of using a queuing system, not everyone seems to be getting the message - as such, these

I think I learned this trick from Reuti: - Any legit job running under Grid Engine will be a child process of an sge_execd daemon. A nice little trick is a cronjob that does a kill -9 on any user process that is not a child of sge_execd -- that will quickly send a message to the people

We have similar computing policies (3rd strike and out) in place starting Fall 2011 semester but would love to know the technique of killing any/all user process that is not a child of sge_execd. Gives me something to learn about and use later, if need arises. But I do agree about your other
