Sun Grid Engine Queue Configuration

qconf options

Qconf allows the system administrator to add, delete, and modify the current Sun Grid Engine configuration, including queue management, host management, complex management and user management. Qconf also allows you to examine the current queue configuration for existing queues.

Qconf allows the use of the backslash, '\', character at the end of a line to indicate that the next line is a continuation of the current line. When displaying settings, such as the output of one of the -s* options, qconf will break up long lines (lines greater than 80 characters) into smaller lines using backslash line continuation where possible. Lines will only be broken up at commas or whitespace. This feature can be disabled by setting the SGE_SINGLE_LINE environment variable.

Unless denoted otherwise, the following options and the corresponding operations are available to all users with a valid account.

<add to object attributes>
Similar to -aattr (see below) but takes specifications for the object attributes to be enhanced from file named fname. As opposed to -aattr, multiple attributes can be enhanced. Their specification has to be enlisted in fname following the file format of the corresponding object (see queue_conf(5) for the queue, for example).
Requires root/manager privileges.
Adds a new calendar definition to the Sun Grid Engine environment. Calendars are used in Sun Grid Engine for defining availability and unavailability schedules of queues. The format of a calendar definition is described in calendar_conf(5).

The calendar definition is taken from the file fname. Requires root/ manager privileges.

Add the checkpointing environment as defined in fname (see checkpoint(5)) to the list of supported checkpointing environments. Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the configurations (see sge_conf(5)) specified in the files enlisted in the comma separated file_list. The configuration is added for the host that is identical to the file name.
Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the execution host defined in fname to the Sun Grid Engine cluster. The format of the execution host specification is described in host_conf(5). Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the host group configuration defined in file. The file format of file must comply to the format specified in hostgroup(5). Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the resource quota set (RQS) defined in the file named fname to the Sun Grid Engine cluster. Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the parallel environment (PE) defined in fname to the Sun Grid Engine cluster. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds the project description defined in fname to the list of registered projects (see project(5)). Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the queue defined in fname to the Sun Grid Engine cluster. Requires root or manager privileges.
Add the user access list (ACL) defined in fname to Sun Grid Engine. User lists are used for queue usage authentication. Requires root/manager/operator privileges.
This parameter can be used since Sun Grid Engine version 6.2u5 in combination with the command line switch -sep. In that case the output of the corresponding command will contain information about the added job to core binding functionality.

If -cb switch is not used then -sep will behave as in GE version 6.2u4 and below.

Please note that this command-line switch will be removed from Sun Grid Engine with the next major release.

<del. from object attribs>
Similar to -dattr (see below) but the definition of the list attributes from which entries are to be deleted is contained in the file named fname. As opposed to -dattr, multiple attributes can be modified. Their specification has to be enlisted in fname following the file format of the corresponding object (see queue_conf(5) for the queue, for example).
Requires root/manager privileges.
<mod. object attributes>
Similar to -mattr (see below) but takes specifications for the object attributes to be modified from file named fname. As opposed to -mattr, multiple attributes can be modified. Their specification has to be enlisted in fname following the file format of the corresponding object (see queue_conf(5) for the queue, for example).
Requires root/manager privileges.
Overwrites the complex configuration by the contents of fname. The argument file must comply to the format specified in complex(5). Requires root or manager privilege.
Overwrites the calendar definition as specified in fname. The argument file must comply to the format described in calendar_conf(5). Requires root or manager privilege.
Overwrite an existing checkpointing environment with the definitions in fname (see checkpoint(5)). The name attribute in fname has to match an existing checkpointing environment. Requires root or manager privileges.
Modify the configurations (see sge_conf(5)) specified in the files enlisted in the comma separated file_list. The configuration is modified for the host that is identical to the file name.
Requires root or manager privileges.
Overwrites the execution host configuration for the specified host with the contents of fname, which must comply to the format defines in host_conf(5). Requires root or manager privilege.
Allows changing of host group configuration with a single command. All host group configuration entries contained in file will be applied. Configuration entries not contained in file will be deleted. The file format of file must comply to the format specified in hostgroup(5).
Same as -mrqs (see below) but instead of invoking an editor to modify the RQS configuration, the file fname is considered to contain a changed configuration. The name of the rule set in fname must be the same as rqs_name. If rqs_name is not set, all rule sets are overwritten by the rule sets in fname Refer to sge_resource_quota(5) for details on the RQS configuration format. Requires root or manager privilege.
Same as -mp (see below) but instead of invoking an editor to modify the PE configuration the file fname is considered to contain a changed configuration. Refer to sge_pe(5) for details on the PE configuration format. Requires root or manager privilege.
Same as -mprj (see below) but instead of invoking an editor to modify the project configuration the file fname is considered to contain a changed configuration. Refer to project(5) for details on the project configuration format. Requires root or manager privilege.
Same as -mq (see below) but instead of invoking an editor to modify the queue configuration the file fname is considered to contain a changed configuration. Refer to queue_conf(5) for details on the queue configuration format. Requires root or manager privilege.
The current scheduler configuration (see sched_conf(5)) is overridden with the configuration specified in the file. Requires root or manager privilege.
Modifies the definition of the share tree (see share_tree(5)). The modified sharetree is read from file fname. Requires root or manager privileges.
Takes the user access list (ACL) defined in fname to overwrite any existing ACL with the same name. See access_list(5) for information on the ACL configuration format. Requires root or manager privilege.
Modify the user defined in fname in the Sun Grid Engine cluster. The format of the user specification is described in user(5). Requires root or manager privileges.
<replace object attribs>
Similar to -rattr (see below) but the definition of the list attributes whose content is to be replace is contained in the file named fname. As opposed to -rattr, multiple attributes can be modified. Their specification has to be enlisted in fname following the file format of the corresponding object (see queue_conf(5) for the queue, for example).
Requires root/manager privileges.

<add to object attributes>
Allows adding specifications to a single configuration list attribute in multiple instances of an object with a single command. Currently supported objects are the queue, the host, the host group, the parallel environment, the resource quota sets and the checkpointing interface configuration being specified as queue , exechost , hostgroup , pe , rqs or ckpt in obj_spec. For the obj_spec queue the obj_instance can be a cluster queue name, a queue domain name or a queue instance name. Find more information concerning different queue names in sge_types(1). Depending on the type of the obj_instance this adds to the cluster queues attribute sublist the cluster queues implicit default configuration value or the queue domain configuration value or queue instance configuration value. The queue load_thresholds parameter is an example of a list attribute. With the -aattr option, entries can be added to such lists, while they can be deleted with -dattr, modified with -mattr, and replaced with -rattr.
For the obj_spec rqs the obj_instance is a unique identifier for a specific rule. The identifier consists of a rule-set name and either the number of the rule in the list, or the name of the rule, separated by a /
The name of the configuration attribute to be enhanced is specified with attr_name followed by val as a name=value pair. The comma separated list of object instances (e.g., the list of queues) to which the changes have to be applied are specified at the end of the command.
The following restriction applies: For the exechost object the load_values attribute cannot be modified (see host_conf(5)).
Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds a new calendar definition to the Sun Grid Engine environment. Calendars are used in Sun Grid Engine for defining availability and unavailability schedules of queues. The format of a calendar definition is described in calendar_conf(5).

With the calendar name given in the option argument qconf will open a temporary file and start up the text editor indicated by the environment variable EDITOR (default editor is vi(1) if EDITOR is not set). After entering the calendar definition and closing the editor the new calendar is checked and registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.

Adds a checkpointing environment under the name ckpt_name to the list of checkpointing environments maintained by Sun Grid Engine and to be usable to submit checkpointing jobs (see checkpoint(5) for details on the format of a checkpointing environment definition). Qconf retrieves a default checkpointing environment configuration and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the checkpointing environment configuration. Upon exit from the editor, the checkpointing environment is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
Successively adds configurations (see sge_conf(5)) For the hosts in the comma separated file_list. For each host, an editor ($EDITOR indicated or vi(1)) is invoked and the configuration for the host can be entered. The configuration is registered with sge_qmaster(8) after saving the file and quitting the editor.
Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds a host to the list of Sun Grid Engine execution hosts. If a queue is configured on a host this host is automatically added to the Sun Grid Engine execution host list. Adding execution hosts explicitly offers the advantage to be able to specify parameters like load scale values with the registration of the execution host. However, these parameters can be modified (from their defaults) at any later time via the -me option described below.
If the host_template argument is present, qconf retrieves the configuration of the specified execution host from sge_qmaster(8) or a generic template otherwise. The template is then stored in a file and qconf executes vi(1) (or the editor indicated by $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to change the entries in the file. The format of the execution host specification is described in host_conf(5). When the changes are saved in the editor and the editor is quit the new execution host is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
Adds hosts hostname to the Sun Grid Engine trusted host list (a host must be in this list to execute administrative Sun Grid Engine commands, the sole exception to this being the execution of qconf on the sge_qmaster(8) node). The default Sun Grid Engine installation procedures usually add all designated execution hosts (see the -ae option above) to the Sun Grid Engine trusted host list automatically. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds a new host group with the name specified in group. This command invokes an editor (either vi(1) or the editor indicated by the EDITOR environment variable). The new host group entry is registered after changing the entry and exiting the editor. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds one or more Resource Quota Set (RQS) description under the names rqs_name to the list of RQSs maintained by Sun Grid Engine (see sge_resource_quota(5) for details on the format of a RQS definition). Qconf retrieves a default RQS configuration and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the RQS configuration. Upon exit from the editor, the RQS is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds the indicated users to the Sun Grid Engine manager list. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds the indicated users to the Sun Grid Engine operator list. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds a Parallel Environment (PE) description under the name pe_name to the list of PEs maintained by Sun Grid Engine and to be usable to submit parallel jobs (see sge_pe(5) for details on the format of a PE definition). Qconf retrieves a default PE configuration and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the PE configuration. Upon exit from the editor, the PE is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
Activates an additional thread in the master process. thread_name might be either "scheduler" or "jvm". The corresponding thread is only started when it is not already running. There might be only one scheduler and only one jvm thread in the master process at the same time.
Adds a project description to the list of registered projects (see project(5)). Qconf retrieves a template project configuration and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the new project. Upon exit from the editor, the template is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root or manager privileges.
Qconf retrieves the default queue configuration (see queue_conf(5)) and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the queue configuration. Upon exit from the editor, the queue is registered with sge_qmaster(8). A minimal configuration requires only that the queue name and queue hostlist be set. Requires root or manager privileges.
Add hosts hostname to the list of hosts allowed to submit Sun Grid Engine jobs and control their behavior only. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds the specified share tree node(s) to the share tree (see share_tree(5)). The node_path is a hierarchical path ([/]node_name[[/.]node_name...]) specifying the location of the new node in the share tree. The base name of the node_path is the name of the new node. The node is initialized to the number of specified shares. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds the definition of a share tree to the system (see share_tree(5)). A template share tree is retrieved and an editor (either vi(1) or the editor indicated by $EDITOR) is invoked for modifying the share tree definition. Upon exiting the editor, the modified data is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds the definition of a share tree to the system (see share_tree(5)) from the file fname. Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds users to Sun Grid Engine user access lists (ACLs). User lists are used for queue usage authentication. Requires root/manager/operator privileges.
Add the user defined in fname to the Sun Grid Engine cluster. The format of the user specification is described in user(5). Requires root or manager privileges.
Adds a user to the list of registered users (see user(5)). This command invokes an editor (either vi(1) or the editor indicated by the EDITOR environment variable) for a template user. The new user is registered after changing the entry and exiting the editor. Requires root or manager privileges.
Clears all user and project usage from the sharetree. All usage will be initialized back to zero.
Cleans queue from jobs which haven't been reaped. Primarily a development tool. Requires root/manager/operator privileges. Find a description of wc_queue_list in sge_types(1).

Note: The -ks switch is deprecated, may be removed in future release. Please use the -kt switch instead.
Used to shutdown Sun Grid Engine components (daemons). In the form -km sge_qmaster(8) is forced to terminate in a controlled fashion. In the same way the -ks switch causes termination of the scheduler thread. Shutdown of running sge_execd(8) processes currently registered is initiated by the -ke option. If -kej is specified instead, all jobs running on the execution hosts are aborted prior to termination of the corresponding sge_execd(8). The comma separated host list specifies the execution hosts to be addressed by the -ke and -kej option. If the keyword all is specified instead of a host list, all running sge_execd(8) processes are shutdown. Job abortion, initiated by the -kej option will result in dr state for all running jobs until sge_execd(8) is running again.
Requires root or manager privileges.
Terminates a thread in the master process. Currently it is only supported to shutdown the "scheduler" and the "jvm" thread. The command will only be successful if the corresponding thread is running.
Used to shutdown event clients registered at sge_qmaster(8). The comma separated event client list specifies the event clients to be addressed by the -kec option. If the keyword all is specified instead of an event client list, all running event clients except special clients like the scheduler thread are terminated. Requires root or manager privilege.

<purge divergent attribute settings>
Delete the values of the attributes defined in attr_nm from the object defined in obj_spec. Obj_spec can be "queue_instance" or "queue_domain". The names of the attributes are described in queue_conf(1).
This operation only works on a single queue instance or domain. It cannot be used on a cluster queue. In the case where the obj_spec is "queue@@hostgroup", the attribute values defined in attr_nm which are set for the indicated hostgroup are deleted, but not those which are set for the hosts contained by that hostgroup. If the attr_nm is '*', all attribute values set for the given queue instance or domain are deleted.
The main difference between -dattr and -purge is that -dattr removes a value from a single list attribute, whereas -purge removes one or more overriding attribute settings from a cluster queue configuration. With -purge, the entire attribute is deleted for the given queue instance or queue domain.
<replace object attributes>
Allows replacing a single configuration list attribute in multiple instances of an object with a single command. Find more information concerning obj_spec and obj_instance in the description of -aattr .
Requires root or manager privilege.

Note: Deprecated, may be removed in future release.

Displays a list of virtual processors. This value is taken from the underlying OS and it depends on underlying hardware and operating system whether this value represents sockets, cores or supported threads.

If this option is used in combination with -cb parameter then two additional columns will be shown in the output for the number of sockets and number of cores. Currently SGE will enlist these values only if the corresponding operating system of execution host is Linux under kernel >= 2.6.16, or Solaris 10. Other operating systems or versions might be supported with the future update releases. In case these values won't be retrieved, '0' character will be displayed.

Note, that the reasons for job requirements being invalid with respect to resource availability of queues are displayed using the format as described for the qstat(1) -F option (see description of Full Format in section OUTPUT FORMATS of the qstat(1) manual page.

Specifies the location of the Sun Grid Engine standard configuration files.
If set, specifies the default Sun Grid Engine cell. To address a Sun Grid Engine cell qconf uses (in the order of precedence):

The name of the cell specified in the environment variable SGE_CELL, if it is set.

The name of the default cell, i.e. default.

If set, specifies that debug information should be written to stderr. In addition the level of detail in which debug information is generated is defined.
If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_qmaster(8) is expected to listen for communication requests. Most installations will use a services map entry instead to define that port.
If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_execd(8) is expected to listen for communication requests. Most installations will use a services map entry instead to define that port.
If set, indicates that long lines should not be broken up using backslashes. This setting is useful for scripts which expect one entry per line.

Modifications to a queue configuration do not affect an active queue, taking effect on next invocation of the queue (i.e., the next job).
