In the rare cases when you really want to extend the runtime of a job, you could kill the execd on the node (e.g. by "softstop" as argument to the startscript "sgeexed" in /etc). Then the job won't be aborted. But also no new jobs will be send to the node as it appears as being unavailable to the qmaster. You have to check by hand on the node, whether the job finished in the meantime and restart the execd. There is also only an email, when the execd restarts. -- Reuti > root@frontend01:~>qacct -j 540165 > ============================================================== > qname all.q > hostname node166.cruncher > group alinsch > owner alinsch > project NONE > department defaultdepartment > jobname CuPb.ph.q1.irrep110to110.5oyaELRwZd > jobnumber 540165 > taskid undefined > account sge > priority 0 > qsub_time Sun Jan 8 15:18:25 2012 > start_time Sun Jan 8 15:18:27 2012 > end_time Tue Jan 10 15:18:28 2012 > granted_pe openmpi_a > slots 5 > failed 100 : assumedly after job > exit_status 137 > ru_wallclock 172801 > ru_utime 21.570 > ru_stime 2.349 > ru_maxrss 0 > ru_ixrss 0 > ru_ismrss 0 > ru_idrss 0 > ru_isrss 0 > ru_minflt 7337 > ru_majflt 0 > ru_nswap 0 > ru_inblock 0 > ru_oublock 0 > ru_msgsnd 0 > ru_msgrcv 0 > ru_nsignals 0 > ru_nvcsw 338428 > ru_nivcsw 1594 > cpu 862358.530 > mem 2575536.313 > io 497.175 > iow 0.000 > maxvmem 15.582G > arid undefined > > Is this a bug or was my qalter command incomplete ? > Any ideas are welcome. > Udo > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > [email protected] > https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > [email protected] > https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
