Hey all,
In the Moab documentation (section 13.7), it talks about setting up
resource managers to monitor license managers, etc. We've gotten that
set up, and 'mdiag -n' has output like this:
> NODE[GLOBAL] Config Res fluent: 8 fluent-nox: 8 fluent-par: 24 fluent-post: 4 fluentall: 8 gambit: 8 geom-trans: 8
> NODE[GLOBAL] Dedicated Res ---
> NODE[GLOBAL] Available Res fluent: 8 fluent-nox: 8 fluent-par: 23 fluent-post: 4 fluentall: 7 gambit: 8 geom-trans: 8
So, it looks it's being monitored correctly. However, when it describes
how to request the resources (see
http://www.clusterresources.com/products/mwm/docs/13.7licensemanagement.shtml#requesting),
it only shows how to request one type of license. So, for example, what
syntax do I pass to torque's qsub when I want to reserve 1 fluent
license, and 10 fluent-par licenses? I'm guessing it'd be something
like this:
> qsub -l nodes=10:ppn=2,software=fluent:1,fluent-par:10 cmdscript.txt
Can someone verify this syntax, or if I'm wrong, tell me what it should be?
Thanks,
Lloyd Brown
