Doug, I’m sure you will want to study how the monitor is invoked on the slurm generic, and make the appropriate modification near the end of the XML, in particular:
<monitor-data
schedulerType="SLURM">
</monitor-data> But, anticipating that getting everything working will take some debugging, I posted some comments from our friends at Juelich Supercomputing Center on how to debug the monitoring
capability at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_debug_the_server_part_of_PTP.27s_system_monitoring_capability.3F I hope this helps when you get to this point –

On Behalf Of Doug James Thanks Galen! Haven’t had any difficulty getting to the XSEDE XML files. But Stampede will be at least a bit harder than just a minor mod of Lonestar – Stampede uses SLURM
instead of SGE. I’m hoping that Lonestar + Generic SLURM will get me 90% there, and then maybe I can lean on the vets to help get this thing across the finish line… Doug James From:

On Behalf Of Arnold, Galen Wesley Doug,
I'd suggest adding the components from the NCSA forecaster site if you haven't done that. You'll get the resource mgr configs for most xsede systems and if you're
trying to setup an SGE for stampede, lonestar and/or ranger may be very close starting points. 1) Help -> Install New Software -> Add... Name: forecaster.ncsa.uiuc.edu ...add everything there, restart eclipse. You'll now have "Myproxy Logon..." under the System menu. Use it and you'll only need to provide your proxy passphrase
once per day (the proxy will persist across eclipse restarts ). You'll also have jaxb xml schema for the various xsede resources. Make a new resourceManagers project under the c/c++ perspective. 2) Get a copy of edu.utexas.tacc.lonestar.sge.batch from the list when you create the project and you should see something like that name with (1).xml appended to
show it's a copy. Then you can modify it for stampede and test it over in the "System Monitoring" perspective with a parallel runtime configuration. Give it a new unique name so that it doesn't confict with ones already in the list ( stampede-test ). When
you're happy with it ping Jay, Beth, or Greg and they can point you in the direction of getting it added to PTP. I recently added the bw xml config. and I'm more partial to providing a free-form style box(es) with more description to the side to guide the user. Load up the
edu.illinois.ncsa.bluewaters.pbs.batch and take a look if you want. I find it too limiting to try to guess all the possible batch settings and handle them in the form (that and it would be far too long a form). -Galen Galen Arnold From:
ptp-user-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [ptp-user-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] on behalf of Doug James PTP Friends -- I'm in the early stages of trying to cut-and-paste my way to a Resource Manager for Stampede. I'm using Albert's slides, FAQ, and the documentation at
http://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/designs/Resource_Manager_Configuration as primary references. I've run into my first snag at Albert's slide 18 -- the first silly question that undoubtedly won't be my last: My System Monitor perspective doesn't have a Resource Managers tab/window as expected. I poked around, reset the perspective, said a few prayers and then some foul words, and otherwise
tried to make one appear. No luck. I'm apparently overlooking something simple. Any patient expert willing to steer me in the proper direction? Apologies in advance for missing the obvious. I'm running Juno SR1 and PTP 6.0.3.201211112147. Thanks... Doug James |
