No permission for sbatch on compute nodes - fix proposition #1

Open oklimas opened 7 months ago

oklimas commented 7 months ago

A little background: I was interested in running your code. One of my colleagues observed, that LEDE-CREST starts a new job from a running job. By the policy on our clusters this is not permitted and AFAIK that is also true for many other computing centers.

To the point: I've sat down and tweaked the code to make it work without the need for starting a job from a compute node. I added a function that periodically uses scontrol to monitor the status of a job and a script that translates from scontrol output to LEDE-CREST. It requires the use of screen, byobu, or another window manager. I would like to fork your repository and publish the modified script. I get the permission from the license, I know. But I just wanted to let you know, I made my own version. It will be available soon enough.

Final notes: A user came to us, trying to use your code. I really liked the idea behind LEDE-CREST and instantly wanted to use it myself too. Thank you for making this.

Sincerely, OK

Sounds good. Thanks for letting me know. It's good to see others find it useful and are adapting it to their own clusters' infrastructure. Nathanael
