[Swift-user] errors in file transfer

[Yue, Chen - BMD]

Hi Mihael,
 
When I do qstat, it shows the following line for all my jobs in the queue:
 
937872.abem5              null             yuechen                0 Q(null) normal
 
It looks like no job is running. 
 
I did the qstat -q. Should I use the following line instead in sites.xml for shorter Walltime?
 
<profile namespace="globus" key="queue">debug</profile>

I will send email to help at teragrid.org about the Bigred certificate problem.
 
Thanks!
 
Chen, Yue

When you do qstat, are your jobs in a queued state?

You should be able to specify the queue. The only problem is that you
are specifying a queue that doesn't exist on Abe.

This is what I've found online:
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/UserInfo/Resources/Hardware/Intel64Cluster/Doc/Jobs.html#Queues

You can also log in, and do a qstat -q, which will show the following:
[hategan at honest2 ~]$ qstat -q

server: abem5.ncsa.uiuc.edu

Bigred, it would seem, has an expired host certificate. This is a
problem with the site. I would suggest seding an email to
help at teragrid.org with the above message (from "Server refused
performing the request" to "530 End.]").
