Sorry, I am still trying to grok all your email as what the problem you
are trying to solve. So is the issue is trying to have two jobs having
processes on the same node be able to bind there processes on different
resources. Like core 1 for the first job and core 2 and 3 for the 2nd job?

That's exactly it.  Each MPI process needs to be bound to 1 processor in a way 
that reflects GE's slot allocation scheme.


I actually don't think that I got it.  So you give two cases:

Case 1:
$ qsub -pe mpi 8 -binding pe linear:1 myScript.com

and my pe_hostfile looks like:

exec6.cluster.stats.local 2
batch.q@exec6.cluster.stats.local
  0,1
Shouldn't here two cores be reserved for exec6 as it got two slots?


That's what I was wondering.
exec1.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec1.cluster.stats.local
  0,1
exec7.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec7.cluster.stats.local
  0,1
exec5.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec5.cluster.stats.local
  0,1
exec4.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec4.cluster.stats.local
  0,1
exec3.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec3.cluster.stats.local
  0,1
exec2.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec2.cluster.stats.local
  0,1


Case 2:
Notice that, because I have specified the -binding pe linear:1, each execution 
node binds processes for the job_id to one core.  If I have -binding pe 
linear:2, I get:

exec6.cluster.stats.local 2
batch.q@exec6.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2
exec1.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec1.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2
exec7.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec7.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2
exec4.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec4.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2
exec3.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec3.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2
exec2.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec2.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2
exec5.cluster.stats.local 1
batch.q@exec5.cluster.stats.local
  0,1:0,2

Is your complaint really the fact that exec6 has been allocated two slots but 
there seems to only be one slot worth of resources allocated
All are wrong except exec6. They should only get one core assigned.

Huh?  I would have thought exec6 would get 4 cores and the rest are correct.

to it (ie in case one exec6 only has 1 core and case 2 it has two where maybe 
you'd expect 2 and 4 cores allocated respectively)?
