NAME

       rsl - GRAM5 RSL Attributes

DESCRIPTION

       arguments
           The command line arguments for the executable. Use quotes, if a space is required in a
           single argument.

       count
           The number of executions of the executable. [Default: 1]

       directory
           Specifies the path of the directory the jobmanager will use as the default directory
           for the requested job. [Default: $(HOME)]

       dry_run
           If dryrun = yes then the jobmanager will not submit the job for execution and will
           return success. [Default: no]

       environment
           The environment variables that will be defined for the executable in addition to
           default set that is given to the job by the jobmanager.

       executable
           The name of the executable file to run on the remote machine. If the value is a GASS
           URL, the file is transferred to the remote gass cache before executing the job and
           removed after the job has terminated.

       expiration
           Time (in seconds) after a a job fails to receive a two-phase commit end signal before
           it is cleaned up. [Default: 14400]

       file_clean_up
           Specifies a list of files which will be removed after the job is completed.

       file_stage_in
           Specifies a list of ("remote URL" "local file") pairs which indicate files to be
           staged to the nodes which will run the job.

       file_stage_in_shared
           Specifies a list of ("remote URL" "local file") pairs which indicate files to be
           staged into the cache. A symlink from the cache to the "local file" path will be made.

       file_stage_out
           Specifies a list of ("local file" "remote URL") pairs which indicate files to be
           staged from the job to a GASS-compatible file server.

       gass_cache
           Specifies location to override the GASS cache location.

       gram_my_job
           Obsolete and ignored. [Default: collective]

       host_count
           Only applies to clusters of SMP computers, such as newer IBM SP systems. Defines the
           number of nodes ("pizza boxes") to distribute the "count" processes across.

       job_type
           This specifies how the jobmanager should start the job. Possible values are single
           (even if the count > 1, only start 1 process or thread), multiple (start count
           processes or threads), mpi (use the appropriate method (e.g. mpirun) to start a
           program compiled with a vendor-provided MPI library. Program is started with count
           nodes), and condor (starts condor jobs in the "condor" universe.) [Default: multiple]

       library_path
           Specifies a list of paths to be appended to the system-specific library path
           environment variables. [Default: $(GLOBUS_LOCATION)/lib]

       loglevel
           Override the default log level for this job. The value of this attribute consists of a
           combination of the strings FATAL, ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE joined by the |
           character

       logpattern
           Override the default log path pattern for this job. The value of this attribute is a
           string (potentially containing RSL substitutions) that is evaluated to the path to
           write the log to. If the resulting string contains the string $(DATE) (or any other
           RSL substitution), it will be reevaluated at log time.

       max_cpu_time
           Explicitly set the maximum cputime for a single execution of the executable. The units
           is in minutes. The value will go through an atoi() conversion in order to get an
           integer. If the GRAM scheduler cannot set cputime, then an error will be returned.

       max_memory
           Explicitly set the maximum amount of memory for a single execution of the executable.
           The units is in Megabytes. The value will go through an atoi() conversion in order to
           get an integer. If the GRAM scheduler cannot set maxMemory, then an error will be
           returned.

       max_time
           The maximum walltime or cputime for a single execution of the executable. Walltime or
           cputime is selected by the GRAM scheduler being interfaced. The units is in minutes.
           The value will go through an atoi() conversion in order to get an integer.

       max_wall_time
           Explicitly set the maximum walltime for a single execution of the executable. The
           units is in minutes. The value will go through an atoi() conversion in order to get an
           integer. If the GRAM scheduler cannot set walltime, then an error will be returned.

       min_memory
           Explicitly set the minimum amount of memory for a single execution of the executable.
           The units is in Megabytes. The value will go through an atoi() conversion in order to
           get an integer. If the GRAM scheduler cannot set minMemory, then an error will be
           returned.

       project
           Target the job to be allocated to a project account as defined by the scheduler at the
           defined (remote) resource.

       proxy_timeout
           Obsolete and ignored. Now a job-manager-wide setting.

       queue
           Target the job to a queue (class) name as defined by the scheduler at the defined
           (remote) resource.

       remote_io_url
           Writes the given value (a URL base string) to a file, and adds the path to that file
           to the environment throught the GLOBUS_REMOTE_IO_URL environment variable. If this is
           specified as part of a job restart RSL, the job manager will update the file's
           contents. This is intended for jobs that want to access files via GASS, but the URL of
           the GASS server has changed due to a GASS server restart.

       restart
           Start a new job manager, but instead of submitting a new job, start managing an
           existing job. The job manager will search for the job state file created by the
           original job manager. If it finds the file and successfully reads it, it will become
           the new manager of the job, sending callbacks on status and streaming stdout/err if
           appropriate. It will fail if it detects that the old jobmanager is still alive (via a
           timestamp in the state file). If stdout or stderr was being streamed over the network,
           new stdout and stderr attributes can be specified in the restart RSL and the
           jobmanager will stream to the new locations (useful when output is going to a GASS
           server started by the client that's listening on a dynamic port, and the client was
           restarted). The new job manager will return a new contact string that should be used
           to communicate with it. If a jobmanager is restarted multiple times, any of the
           previous contact strings can be given for the restart attribute.

       rsl_substitution
           Specifies a list of values which can be substituted into other rsl attributes' values
           through the $(SUBSTITUTION) mechanism.

       save_state
           Causes the jobmanager to save it's job state information to a persistent file on disk.
           If the job manager exits or is suspended, the client can later start up a new job
           manager which can continue monitoring the job.

       savejobdescription
           Save a copy of the job description to $HOME [Default: no]

       scratch_dir
           Specifies the location to create a scratch subdirectory in. A SCRATCH_DIRECTORY RSL
           substitution will be filled with the name of the directory which is created.

       stderr
           The name of the remote file to store the standard error from the job. If the value is
           a GASS URL, the standard error from the job is transferred dynamically during the
           execution of the job. There are two accepted forms of this value. It can consist of a
           single destination: stderr = URL, or a sequence of destinations: stderr =
           (DESTINATION) (DESTINATION). In the latter case, the DESTINATION may itself be a URL
           or a sequence of an x-gass-cache URL followed by a cache tag. [Default: /dev/null]

       stderr_position
           Specifies where in the file remote standard error streaming should be restarted from.
           Must be 0.

       stdin
           The name of the file to be used as standard input for the executable on the remote
           machine. If the value is a GASS URL, the file is transferred to the remote gass cache
           before executing the job and removed after the job has terminated. [Default:
           /dev/null]

       stdout
           The name of the remote file to store the standard output from the job. If the value is
           a GASS URL, the standard output from the job is transferred dynamically during the
           execution of the job. There are two accepted forms of this value. It can consist of a
           single destination: stdout = URL, or a sequence of destinations: stdout =
           (DESTINATION) (DESTINATION). In the latter case, the DESTINATION may itself be a URL
           or a sequence of an x-gass-cache URL followed by a cache tag. [Default: /dev/null]

       stdout_position
           Specifies where in the file remote output streaming should be restarted from. Must be
           0.

       two_phase
           Use a two-phase commit for job submission and completion. The job manager will respond
           to the initial job request with a WAITING_FOR_COMMIT error. It will then wait for a
           signal from the client before doing the actual job submission. The integer supplied is
           the number of seconds the job manager should wait before timing out. If the job
           manager times out before receiving the commit signal, or if a client issues a cancel
           signal, the job manager will clean up the job's files and exit, sending a callback
           with the job status as GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_JOB_STATE_FAILED. After the job manager
           sends a DONE or FAILED callback, it will wait for a commit signal from the client. If
           it receives one, it cleans up and exits as usual. If it times out and save_state was
           enabled, it will leave all of the job's files in place and exit (assuming the client
           is down and will attempt a job restart later). The timeoutvalue can be extended via a
           signal. When one of the following errors occurs, the job manager does not delete the
           job state file when it exits: GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_ERROR_COMMIT_TIMED_OUT,
           GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_ERROR_TTL_EXPIRED, GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_ERROR_JM_STOPPED,
           GLOBUS_GRAM_PROTOCOL_ERROR_USER_PROXY_EXPIRED. In these cases, it can not be
           restarted, so the job manager will not wait for the commit signal after sending the
           FAILED callback

       username
           Verify that the job is running as this user.
