I'm planning to get some of the informations I need by connecting to the ARCo DB from my Python code, and to invoke the GE commands once I got the data and I've taken the proper decisions. DRMAA APIs would be much better, but at the moment the v2 specs are not available, and even when they will be released I can't figure how long does it take to implement it in GE.
Cheers!

I need to port my python code automating the job management, from LSF to Grid Engine. DRMAA APIs could do the job but at present it seems they lack functionalities: I'd need infos about the resource usage of the job at node, know nodes running a given job, have static infos about nodes (CPUs, memory), advanced reservation management and so on. Has Grid Engine suitable APIs ? Is there a programmmer's guide documenting them? I could only find DRMAA howtos, but nothing more in the user and administrator guide now hosted at Oracle's site.

there is no direct API *), even DRMAA would only be of help in v2 for your intended use I fear (it's v1 in SGE for now).

Well, DRMAA v2 isn't yet finalized and then needs to be approved by OGF. Once that's done we certainly have the intention to add support for it.

*) In fact there is a not maintained one: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.clustering.gridengine.users/20830

Do you refer to JGDI, the JMX interface or one of the in-house solutions which some community members have been referring to in this thread?

The JGDI and JMX interfaces are maintained but at this point they are not public and are not considered stable, i.e. they may change without notice and they do not make guarantees for backward compatibility of an sort. Hence they are also not documented externally.

Thanks in advance for your help,
