How to use nested clusters and restrictions

[jburk]

In the example, there 3 hosts, in nested clusters, and all in the 'testing' group:

rhe30     00:0C:29:DA:E5:8E 192.168.60.88   active   0/0   /private             testing 
rhe40     00:0C:29:44:33:98 192.168.60.90   active   0/1   /private/very        testing 
rhel4-64  00:0C:29:DE:6E:03 192.168.60.178  active   0/0   /private/very/deep   testing

here's the qbwrk.conf

#=====================================================================
# define a host that will run jobs in any cluster at /private or 1 level below
# - done with the '*'
#=====================================================================
[rhe30]
worker_cluster = "/private"
worker_restrictions = "/private or /private/*"
worker_groups = "testing"

#=====================================================================
# define a host that will only run jobs in /private/very or any level below
# - done with the '+'
#=====================================================================
[rhe40]
worker_cluster = "/private/very"
worker_restrictions = "/private/very or /private/very/+"
worker_groups = "testing"

#=====================================================================
# define a host that will only run jobs in /private/very/deep
#=====================================================================
[rhel4-64]
worker_cluster = "/private/very/deep"
worker_restrictions = "/private/very/deep"
worker_groups = "testing"



submit a job that will run only in /private:

Code: [Select]

qbsub -cl /private -restr /private <cmd>

submit a job that will prefer to run in /private/very, but could run in any host in /private or in the first level below /private
 

Code: [Select]

qbsub -cl /private/very -rest '/private or /private/*' <cmd>
 
submit a job that will prefer to run in /private/very/deep, but could run in any host at any level at /private or below

Code: [Select]

qbsub -cl /private/very/deep -restr '/private or /private/+' hostname
