I received a single reply from Tom Webster (thanx),
who recommended i use NQE (Network Queuing
Environment) from Cray. It is a commercial product,
and they currently use it on on 4.0g.
As far as dqs core dumping, haven't found a
solution....but, narrowed it down to problem with
4.0g. Only installations (new & old) on 4.0g core
dump. On 5.1, it runs fine!
I dont remember when it was last working on 4.0g.
Can unix systime change, from 9->10 digits have any
effect on it really as far as 4.0g is concerned?
Nothing else has changed on the 4.0g machines (that i
can recall), but it stopped working completely.
Submitting any job thru qsub core dumps immediately.
Same job, will get queued and ran on 5.1.
In all its commands, it starts out with
(sample)time=1015443034
I did setenv DEBUG 1, and tried running it, nothing
unusual came up. Worse, maintainers seem to have
shutdown (FSU -ftp.csit.fsu.edu) their emails bounce,
and their anonymous ftp errors out!! So, no light in
this tunnel in terms of dqs. All efforts have been
fruitless on 4.0g, so now users have to submit jobs
using high nice values, instead of neat queuing that
used to be provided by dqs.
_Thanks all
Richard
