The Argonne SP Scheduler provides deterministic queuing of jobs for exclusive access to the SP nodes for either batch or interactive use.

• Research Organization: Argonne National Lab. (ANL), Argonne, IL (United States)

• OSTI ID: 253207
• Report Number(s): ESTSC-001078MLTPL00
• Resource Relation: Other Information: DN: To enforce exclusive access to the SP nodes, the scheduler utilizes an NIS server which all the scheduable resources can rely on for user authentication information. When the scheduler allocates an SP node to a user, it adds that user`s username to the SP nodes/etc/password file. This username is used by the NIS server to ensure that the user has access to the SP node. Other sites have made slight modifications to the scheduler so that it can use its Kerberos component to control SP node access instead. The SP Scheduler does not use any version specific features of Perl and is currently using Perl version 4.036. It has not yet been tested with Perl 5. Tcl and Tk are required if the xspusage GUI (graphical user interface) is desired.;...
