Hi all,

Thank you. So I really have to remove the node from SGE and then put it back in? Or is there an easier way?

I checked the spool directory and there is nothing in there. Also, funny enough the node does accept jobs if they are single node jobs. For example, there are two nodes free, node2 and node3, with 20 cores each and a user submits a parallel job asking for 40 cores it will not run saying the PE only offers 20 cores and with the error about node3 that a previous job needs to be cleaned up. But if the user submits 2 jobs each asking for 20 core they both run just fine.

However, I found something in the spool directory of the queue master. Here node3 is the only node that has entries in the reschedule_unkown_list while all other exechosts have NONE there. All of these job IDs belong to jobs that are either running fine or still queueing.

But I do not know from where this file is populated to be able to clear this list.

Best wishes

Marlies

Hi all,

Over the weekend something seems to have gone wrong with one of the nodes in 
our cluster. We get the error:

cannot run on host "cpu-1-3.local" until clean up of an previous run has 
finished


I have restarted the node but the error is still there. We are using OGS/Grid 
Engine 2011.11 as implemented in ROCKS 6.1.
How can I fix the node so jobs can run on it again?
Sometimes there are some remains of former jobw in the exechosts spool directory in the 
directory "jobs". But as you rebooted the node already we don't have to take 
care of other jobs running on this machine, hence it might be easier to remove the 
complete spool directory for this exechost, i.e. something like 
$SGE_ROOT/default/spool/node17. The directory node17 will be recreated automatically when 
the execd starts on node17.

Also, does anyone know what might have caused this error to appear in the first 
place?

Best wishes and thank you in advance for your help

Marlies
