Sorry, this project is not yet supported.

diogene87-1.0.0rc5 is available.

Diogene87 is a powerful job scheduler system which provides advanced features : centralized management, remote job execution, job dependencies, start conditions, job monitoring, log, statistics...

- A core dump that occurred when the `rjd' command was called with an unexistant job name was fixed.
- New job states were added to explain why a job can not be started (target closed, queue closed, limit of running jobs reached).
- An explicit entry is added in the job log when a job can not be started.
- The dio87c configuration utility checks file owner and file permission of the private configuration file (~/.dio87c.conf).
- Explicit messages are added in the job log when a job can not be started (to explain the `deleted' state).
- The `js' (job stop) command can be used to send a SIGINT signal to a running job.

diogene87-1.0.0rc4 is available.

NEWS :
- The new function `rjd' (Referential Job Duplicate) can be used to copy a job in the same task (with another name) or in another task.
- SOLARIS support for compilation.
- bug fix : dio87d created a core dump when a job can not be started.
- bug fix : number of opened pipes (lsof) increased indefinitely every time a job was sended.
- bug fix : the error message "File 's_r1.data' already exists" does not appear in the system log .
- add an explicit error message when a file can't be opened (to ask user to check file owner and permissions).

This is the first pre-release of diogene87-1.0.0. All features are implemented and diogene87 is quite stable. Next releases will provide only bug fixes and cosmetic changes.

If you want to use a GUI with diogene87, please see the narcisse81 project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/narcisse81/)

NEWS :
Monitor commands (`ejm' and `etm') accept new options : `-D' to print job/task description, `-T' to print the target name, `-Q' to print the target and the queue names. Database save is done only when it's necessary : it will reduce the number of access to the hard disk. All messages (error, warning, info) are sended to syslog. You can use the `LOG_LEVEL' parameter in the configuration file to control whose messages are sended to syslog. You can use the `-s' option with dio87d to suspend the engine at startup : it's usefull to control the situation after a crash.

News : A newly created task is linked by default with the target `localhost' and the queue `batch'. So, calling the `rtsq' command is not necessary, if you want to run this task on localhost/batch. But, if you want to run the task on another target and/or in another queue, you have to call the `rtst' command. - You can use the new commands `tsn' (target set name) and `qsn' (queue set name) command to rename a target or a queue.

The migration from 5 daemons to 1 daemon is in progress.

In the CVS, the following directories were removed : dg87x, dg87d, dg87s, dg87l, dg87r, diocmd.

dio87d is the new daemon which replaces dg87{x,r,l,s,d}.
dio87c is the new communication utility which replaces dg{l,x,r,s,d}
Autotests are rewrited to work with dio87d.

The new daemon needs some optimizations : I will try to do them the next week.

In the next release (0.9.2), all daemons (dg87d,x,r,s,l) will be merged into one daemon (dio87d). The 5 communication utilities (dgd,x,r,s,l) will be replaced by one program (dio87c).

This important modification was asked by several users : Diogene87 will be easier to understand, to use and to configure.

This new release should be available in one or two months.

With the `file' condition, the file presence is checked on the remote server (dg87r) where the task is running (target) and not on the server where diogene87 is running (dg87x). The `rtca' command accepts a new parameter for `hmin', `hmax' and `hlate' conditions. It indicates when the condition is evaluated : 0 for the first day, 1 for the next day, 2 for the second next day... All communication utilities are replaced by symlinks on diocmd. The owner of data files is changed when the daemon is running as root.
