Hi,
I have a cluster with 168 slots (14 nodes). I use a submission script that
does nothing
#!/bin/bash --login
#$ -S /bin/bash
#$ -j y
#$ -cwd
#$ -pe make 16-
#$ -q all.q
#$ -N test
Make PE definition:
pe_name make
slots 999
user_lists NONE
xuser_lists NONE
start_proc_args NONE
stop_proc_args NONE
allocation_rule $round_robin
control_slaves TRUE
job_is_first_task FALSE
urgency_slots min
accounting_summary FALSE
This job, although it does nothing, blocks the queue for more than a minute
plbadob@k:~/test> qsub ./test.sge ; date ; qstat
Your job 127 ("test") has been submitted
Mon Nov 14 10:33:44 CET 2011
job-ID prior name user state submit/start at queue
slots ja-task-ID
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
127 0.00000 test plbadob qw 11/14/2011 10:33:44
16
plbadob@k:~/test> date ; qstat
Mon Nov 14 10:33:46 CET 2011
job-ID prior name user state submit/start at queue
slots ja-task-ID
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
127 0.55500 test plbadob r 11/14/2011 10:33:44
[email protected] 168
plbadob@k:~/test> date ; qstat
Mon Nov 14 10:35:10 CET 2011
job-ID prior name user state submit/start at queue
slots ja-task-ID
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
127 0.55500 test plbadob r 11/14/2011 10:33:44
[email protected] 168
plbadob@k:~/test> date ; qstat
Mon Nov 14 10:35:18 CET 2011
The qacct reports that the job finished when it started - as it should be
plbadob@k:~/test> qacct -j 127
==============================================================
qname all.q
qsub_time Mon Nov 14 10:33:44 2011
start_time Mon Nov 14 10:33:44 2011
end_time Mon Nov 14 10:33:44 2011
When I switch control_slaves to FALSE everything works as expected - the
job is removed from the queue immediately.
Andy ideas what could be wrong? How to fix this behavior, so that the
cluster is not being blocked doing nothing?
Cheers,
Bartek
