Dear Experts, I know there are many HPC (high performance computing) experts on this list. I'd like to ask your advise. Almost two decades ago I chose to go with OpenPBS (turned down condor and other alternatives for whatever reason) for clusters and number crunchers I support for the Department at the university. It turned out to be not bad, long lived choice. At some point I smoothly

I need to serialize computing job requests for two different multicore machines, and in some near future, for a cluster. I have worked with SGE but it requires NFS and other administrative steps, plus it seems a bit overkill for my needs. I guess some simpler queue managing engine may have been developed, possibly over SSH. Any pointers? TIA. -- Eduardo Grosclaude Universidad Nacional del

Hey folks, I just went through the archives trying to find some info on this but did not come up with much other than it seems there are a few experts here on the list. I have no experience with clustering and have just taken over a Stem Cell Research Lab that has a Grid Engine cluster. I have not yet dug into the details of Grid Engine (only been here a week now) but am just trying to get up

Dear Experts, Could someone recommend some "quick and dirty" HOWTO on condor based cluster? A did a bunch of cluster setups, I always used PBS (or torque lately). But my professor wants his to be Condor. I started reading Condor documentation, and it is vast. And quick route, like: architecture chart, and parameters I need to configure on master/submit, and compute nodes - somehow

Hello, I would be extremely grateful if anyone is able to provide any (rather obscure) advice on using R with Condor. I think I'm following Xianhong Xie's instructions (R News 5(2) 13-15) correctly, but my job just stays held in the queue (for days / months). I've checked condor_status to make sure there are plenty of machines available, but can't see any way to attack the

Hi Everyone, I have group of R jobs that should be submitted to the condor when I submit the jobs to the condor, they don't run and when I checked the Sched Log files the jobs are exiting with status code 10. Previously, the jobs ran well on condor but now when I submit the jobs on condor they aren't running.Can anyone explain the meaning of this? Here is my submit file: # Submit file

Hello dear R-help group (and David Smith from REvolution), I would like to perform parallel computing using R with Condor (hopefully using foreach or other recommended solutions, if available) for some "Embarrassingly parallel" problem. I will start by listing what I found so far, and then go on asking for help. So far I found the a manual by Xianhong Xie from Rnews_2005-2 (see page

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has successfully linked R against the Condor libraries so that R can be run as a Condor job in the "standard" (not "vanilla") universe. The advantage of this would be that due to checkpointing, jobs can be suspended and transferred to another node. There is a good overview by Xianhong Xie here:

Hi, folks, The other admin updated torque without testing it on one machine, and we had Issues. The first I knew was when a user reported qstat returning socket_connect_unix failed: 15137 socket_connect_unix failed: 15137 socket_connect_unix failed: 15137 qstat: cannot connect to server (null) (errno=15137) could not connect to trqauthd Attempting to restart the pbs_server did the same.

Dear Xen users. Have anyone tried to integrate Xen with Torque resource management system? Could you please help me with an advice for a system I''m developing that relies on torque. Let me describe the system first. The part of the system that talks with torque should request a certain amount on nodes of a cluster and launch there a virtual machine instance (one vm instance per host).

Hi All, I have a problem with torque (openPBS) on x86_64 CentOS 5.2. Just to add there's no problem on a 32bit CentOS 5.2 or 64bit Ubuntu 8.04. The problem is that pbs_mom's child quits without giving any error logs. [root at frodo9 torque-2.3.3]# strace -f pbs_mom . . . bind(6, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(15002), sin_addr=inet_addr("0.0.0.0")}, 16) = 0 time(NULL)

Something very scary just happened to me while I was creating a ksh script to rsync mulitple FS between two hosts. Here is the script, notice the 'i' at the end of rsync line, it got put there by mistake. You also see the contents of $FSLIST cat'd below the script. When I ran this, it started to delete files in root's home directory and place files from the fist FS,

Hello all; I'm trying to execute parallel jobs trough library snow on a cluster built through torque/PSB. I'm succesfully obtaining the cluster with: >system("cat $PBS_NODEFILE > cluster.txt") >mycluster <- scan(file="cluster.txt",what="character") >cl <- makeSOCKcluster(mycluster) The only problem, at the moment, is that if I use

I originally posted this issue with the heading "winbind: challenge/response password authentication failed". I was using the redhat 7.3 samba 2.2.3 rpm then. I've upgraded to 2.2.5, but all that's changed is the return message. wbinfo -a VENUS0+tassadar%torque used to get me: plaintext password authentication succeeded challenge/response password authentication failed

The OpenMPI package that ships with CentOS 5.1 does not seem to be compiled with torque support. It does, however, seem to be compiled with gridengine and slurm support. Would it be possible to get this changed?

Hi, I am plotting scatterplots of horsepower by torque, conditional on brand (I'm just making up the variables for this example), and the goal is to see both the scatterplot points as well as the smoothed line. When I do the following code, I get the same color for the points and line, and would like the colors to be different, such as black points and a red smoothed line. How do I do that?
