[Swift-user] Swift on MOAB

[Wilde, Michael J.]

Greg, we've had discussions about making script-generation for local schedulers more template-driven, and (eg for qstat) use local adapter scripts to a common job-status format (typically jobid + completion-status).

We'll see if we can give you a quick temporary solution, or if you want to help out, some advice on how to proceed.

Regards,

- Mike

Subject: Re: [Swift-user] Swift on MOAB

After some poking around I got it to mostly work. One issue is that although Moab accepts PBS scripts it does not implement its commands, such as qsub and qstat. I was able to overcome the first issue by creating a soft link named “qsub” that points to msub. However, I don’t know what to do about qstat. When I do the same linking trick Swift throws errors, probably because it cannot parse the output. Is there a script that takes the output of showq and formats it qstat style? Thanks!

Hi Greg,

I went through this page : https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/moab/ which mentions that PBS
submit scripts are compatible with Moab. So the Swift PBS provider should work for you.

If there are cluster specific details that differ, we could patch the existing PBS provider to work
with your cluster.

Thanks,
Yadu

I’m running on clusters that use MOAB as the main scheduler, with SLURM on each cluster. Jobs need to be submitted to MOAB. Is there a way for Swift to use MOAB as the scheduler? Thanks!
