It is working!! Thank you to all that replied to me and helped me figure this out.
I meant to set the default to 2G so that was my mistake. I changed it to: virtual_free mem MEMORY <= YES YES 2G 0 And it's working now. Although I'm not sure why it affected the PE. Also I didn't set a global one, what is the purpose of the global one? Should I set it? # qconf -se global hostname global load_scaling NONE complex_values NONE load_values NONE processors 0 user_lists NONE xuser_lists NONE projects NONE xprojects NONE usage_scaling NONE report_variables NONE -----Original Message----- From: Reuti [mailto:re...@staff.uni-marburg.de] Sent: Friday, December 16, 2016 7:36 To: John_Tai Cc: Christopher Heiny; users@gridengine.org; Coleman, Marcus [JRDUS Non-J&J] Subject: Re: [gridengine users] John's cores pe (Was: users Digest...) > Am 16.12.2016 um 09:53 schrieb John_Tai <john_...@smics.com>: > > virtual_free mem MEMORY <= YES YES 2 > 0 This would mean, that the default consumption is 2 bytes. I already feared that a high values was programmed here. More suitable would be a default of 1G or so. Is there any virtual_free complex defined on a global level: qconf -se global -- Reuti ________________________________ This email (including its attachments, if any) may be confidential and proprietary information of SMIC, and intended only for the use of the named recipient(s) above.
