Create queues and set their attributes.

Create and define queue batch

create queue batch

set queue batch max_running = 20

set queue batch resources_max.ncpus = 20

set queue batch resources_max.nodes = 20

set queue batch resources_default.ncpus = 1

set queue batch resources_default.nodect = 1

set queue batch resources_default.nodes = 1

set queue batch resources_default.walltime = 76790:53:51

set queue batch enabled = True

set queue batch started = True

set server attributes.

set server scheduling = True

set server acl_hosts = seconduser

set server acl_hosts += firstuser

Answer 1

Try running:

qmgr -c "p s"

Look through the config for queue names. If there is a routing queue try submitting your job with qsub -q queuename jobfile . If a routing queue doesn't exist you can try execution queues. Otherwise, it may be best to ask the cluster admin since they have the power to kill your jobs if you don't do it properly.

Answer 2

Just had the same problem and fixed it. The fullest way to do a qsub is (described here)

qsub -q queuename scriptname

Your queuename can be find using the command described in the previous answer, as you did

qmgr -c "p s"

The result for yours (and mine as well) is that the queue name is "batch." Multiple lines determine this, such as "Create and define queue batch," and "create queue batch," but most assuredly:

set server default_queue = batch

So, submit your job script with

qsub -q batch scriptname
