Hi Nick, The main reason that I am thinking to Slurm (or any session/workload manager) is to manage the live/established sessions. I am trying to deploy Guacamole on HPC. I have lots of nodes/instances that is a bit odd to show them all in users' dashboard to choose between. In addition it's hard to manage the load balance on each node. One scenario is to show particular nodes to a group of users; another one is to have workload manager plugin deployed on Guacamole to allocate a non-busy node to new user/request. The second solution is more professional!
I have tried FastX that automatically allocates non-busy nodes to user and keeps the load balance; however, if user is running an application/simulation, it will still keep running after killing the session which is kind of VNC connection and that node still busy. In the other words, it's nice to have an script/app that kills the sessions automatically and terminates all jobs running on the instance after user logs out or reach to the wall time. Also be able to find the less busy instance to allocate to a user by showing that inside his/her dashboard. Please let me know if you have any advice/solution or somehow possible to add any workload manager into Guacamole. Thanks. -- Sent from: http://apache-guacamole-general-user-mailing-list.2363388.n4.nabble.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
