We run an SGI 4D/240 with about 1000 registered users and are looking
for a PD batch system that can:
1/ schedule several queues of jobs.
2/ each queue should be able to
a/ be stopped and started automatically at arbitrary times.
b/ impose both maximun and default limits for various resources.
3/ Users shoul be able to
a/ submit jobs to queues for processing.
b/ check where their job is in relation to other jobs in the queue
c/ cancle their own jobs.
I wrote such a system for our IBM VM system. It is in C and the model should
transport reasonably well to UNIX. However I am very busy, aren't we all :-),
and would rather pick up something that already works.
I saw a reference to a batch system that was available on pemrac.space.swri.edu
but when I looked there I could not find it.
Does anybody know of a PD batch system for UNIX, pref SYSV but we now have
most of the common Berkley features as extentions?
Is any body else interested in using our batch system if I decide to get it
going?
Cheers Russelll.
