A notice for the changes in UGE job default queue
Apr 27, 2016
To users
Thank you for using our services.
For the purpose of efficiently using the calculator resource, jobs in qsub without options will also be executed on mjobs_rerun.q, starting on the following date:
- April 28, 2016 at 15:00 (JST)
Before the change
- Jobs in qsub without options are executed by either mjobs.q, ljobs.q, lmem.q, or the occupied queue.
- When "-l mjobs_rerun" is added as an option on qsub, it is executed only by mjobs_rerun.q.
After the change
- Jobs in qsub without options are executed by either mjobs.q, ljobs.q, lmem.q, the occupied queue, or mjobs_rerun.q.
mjobs_rerun.q is a queue set up in the same compute node as the occupied queue. When the job to be executed on the occupied queue is put in qsub, the job being executed by mjobs_rerun.q is terminated and returned to the queue (is rescheduled). If you do not wish to execute the job by mjobs_rerun.q, like before the change was implemented, used the -q option as shown below:
$ qsub -q '!mjobs_rerun.q' [script name]
In Shirokane2 in the past, on rare occasions, an error occurred when rescheduling the jobs, which prevented the jobs to be rescheduled. This problem has now been resolved.
