What must be done to run APRV on a computer cluster under control of a queuing system?
To enable the usage of a computer cluster APRV supports the Sun Grid Engine (SGE) queuing system. However, the configuration of the SGE environment is not part of the APRV installation scripts but must be done manually by appending the following SGE variables to the machine specific configuration file of the APRV GUI server (e.g. “~/aprv/.APRV/machines/host.aprv.org”): APRV_sgecmd=”qsub -cwd -V -sync yes -j yes -q XYZ” export APRV_sgecmd SGE_ROOT=”/prog/sge/x.y.z” export SGE_ROOT SGE_CELL=”XYZ” export SGE_CELL SGE_EXECD_PORT=”535″ export SGE_EXECD_PORT SGE_QMASTER_PORT=”536″ export SGE_QMASTER_PORT Please note that the SGE variables must be adapted to your local setup first! Furthermore, variable “APRV_paralleljobs” which limits the maximum number of jobs running in parallel on the APRV GUI server must be set to a high number as the load balancing will be done by the queuing system: APRV_paralleljobs=”1000″ Subsequently, all jobs send to the APRV GUI server will run on the computer clu
