About ----- These files provide low level routines to interface Python code with a Grid Engine-compatible batch job scheduler. The purpose of this is to abstract away the direct calling of the Grid Engine command-line utility *qsub* from within a Python script, but to provide nonetheless a faithful mapping of all its available options. Example ------- x = SGE.qsubOptions() x.args.N = 'MyJobName' # Name of Grid Engine job x.args.t = '1-20' # Define an array job with 20 subjobs x.args.p = '-500' # Set priority to -500 x.args.o = '$JOB_NAME.$JOB_ID.$TASK_ID.stdout.log'.replace('$', '\$') #Set output for each array job x.args.command = 'mycmd' x.args.b = 'y' # This is a binary file print '#To submit the array job, run this command:' x.execute(mode = 'echo') Note ---- These routines were tested on Sun Grid Engine 6.2.
