Hi Reuti,

I see now processes perfectly binding to cores after I applied your advice:

$ qconf -sconf
...

execd_params                 ENABLE_ADDGRP_KILL=TRUE ENABLE_BINDING=TRUE


Thanks a lot for your answer
Best Regards,
Edrisse

Dear Grid Engine developers and users,

I would like to bind processes to a sequence of cores or to a single
socket.
I tried to constrain my jobs to run on 8 cores within 1 socket :

qsub -S /bin/bash -N test -cwd -V -pe smp 8 -binding set striding:1:8 -q
1day.q job.sh

Unfortunately, I see processes jumping from cores to other cores during
the job.
I perhaps missed something, could you please advise me ?

Best Regards,
Edrisse

Notes :  - I use Grid Engine 2011.1
         - I set parallel environment on pe_slots
         - My nodes architecture is 64 cores on 4 sockets :
did you enable binding in execd_params in SGE's configuration?

$ qconf -sconf
...
execd_params                 ENABLE_ADDGRP_KILL=TRUE ENABLE_BINDING=TRUE

Or do you mean that they are jumping inside the set of granted cores?

The allocation is also shown in /proc/<PID>/status
