Thanks! Your first suggestion appears to be working. In this file...
<SGE_ROOT>/<SGE_CELL>/common/sge_request I added this line... -q standard.q Now the standard.q queue is used unless the user specifies another queue. A simple and elegant solution! -- Chet ________________________________ From: Bill Bryce <bbr...@univa.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2016 4:26:51 PM To: Chester Langin Cc: users@gridengine.org Subject: Re: [gridengine users] Implementing new queues You can create a sge request file that sets defaults for particular users or you can also have a Job Submission Verifier and it will enforce specific flags on a qsub (so the users who forget to provide a queue it will automatically add a queue). you can do a 'man sge_request' to find out about request files and a 'man jsv' for information on job submission verifier.

The faculty have been submitting jobs to the scheduler without a specifying a queue, and the queue defaults to all.q. I would like to add more queues and force the faculty to specify one of the new queues. The new queues are gpu.q with just the GPU nodes, hiram.q with just the high-RAM nodes, and standard.q for the remaining queues. By using @gpu_hosts, @hiram_hosts, and @standard_hosts, I have this running on a development cluster. I am ok with the faculty using the honor system in determining which queue to use, so long as they do not use all.q. The problem is that if a faculty does not specify a queue, then all.q is used by the scheduler, and a node becomes over-subscribed. What is the best/easiest way to prevent this from happening? -- Chet Langin SIU _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@gridengine.org<mailto:users@gridengine.org> https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users William Bryce | VP Products Univa Corporation, Toronto E: bbr...@univa.com<mailto:bbr...@univa.com> | D: 647-9742841 | Toll-Free (800) 370-5320 W: Univa.com<http://Univa.com> | FB: facebook.com/univa.corporation<http://facebook.com/univa.corporation> | T: twitter.com/Grid_Engine<http://twitter.com/Grid_Engine>
