Perhaps Mark Dixon will chime in with his scripts for processing the
schedule file to show the reservations in effect.

For those who don't know:

I've written a user command that prints what the resource reservation scheduler is thinking. It looks a lot like qstat, except that all the times are in the future.

It has two main aims:

1) Give users have a greater understanding of when their job may execute.

2) Allow admins and developers to identify times when the scheduler clearly isn't working, submit a bug report, and hopefully get it fixed.

I've already noticed a lot of instances of (2), which I really should submit to Dave's issuezilla.

Files:

There are two Perl programs - "qsched" (user callable) and "process-scheduler-log" (a daemon) - and there'll be a file giving instructions on how to integrate it into GE. That's it.

What needs to be done:

I've got approval to send this upstream under an open source license, but I'm now wondering how to go about it in terms of which license and any notices that need to go with it or into each file. I'm a tech, not a lawyer, so obviously I'm imagining this is more complicated than it actually is ;)

Does anyone have advice on how to do this? This'll be the first time I've submitted code.

I guess the main points that are important to me are:

* It will remain copyright of University of Leeds.

* I'd like it to make it into the source repository if possible, so that people can find it.

* I want the license to be compatible with the rest of the stuff in the source repository. A lot of people say SISSL is a bit odd. Is there another license in common use in the source tree?

Cheers,

Mark
