[BProc] bproc and Maui

[Michael M. <mm...@as...>]

Hi,

On the Maui homepage there is mention of support for bproc.  Specifically:

   BProc Scheduling API - BProc (Scyld)

Is this a feature present in the standard bproc, or is it an extension 
provided by Scyld?

Thanks

Mike Madore

I have no idea.  You should probably ask the maui people.  The last
Maui I saw made no mention of BProc.

Erik,

It turns out that there is  a project called Clubmask (clubmask.sf.net) 
that has integrated Maui and bproc.  I assume they have written a 
resource manager that talks to Maui.  Unfortunately, they are performing 
a full Linux install to each node in the cluster which kind of 
undermines one of the nicest features of bproc (IMO).

Has anyone tried Sun Grid Engine and bproc?  GridEngine can already use
Maui.  Or is that too many layers of indirection.  I was under the
impression that bproc was a queuing system, per se.

Greetings,

Bproc itself isn't really a queueing system, it is a remote execution
system (equivilant to the execution daemons seen in some queueing systems.

G'day,
