[scipion-users] Regarding running protocol on cluster

[ashutosh s. <ash...@gm...>]

Dear Scipion Users

I am analysing ~65000 particles in SPA protocol. I am trying to do this on
a cluster which uses SGE as job scheduler. Since the hosts.conf file is
provided for PBS/Torque, I tried converting it into SGE type script but it
failed in using more than one nodes. So I went ahead and used a bash
jobscript to run the ML2D in the following way

#!/bin/bash
#$ -N classification_2d
#$ -pe openmpi 96
#$ -o pass
#$ -e error
#$ -cwd
#$ -q BLAB
export MPIDIR=/opt/tools/mpi/openmpi-1.10.2-gcc4.4.7/bin
$MPIDIR/mpirun -machinefile $TMPDIR/machines -np $NSLOTS
/opt/tools/scipion/scipion xmipp_mpi_ml_align2d -i input/
particles65818_export.stk --nref 200 --fast --oroot output/ml2d --mirror

This runs fine, generating following files
ml2dclasses.stk
ml2dclasses.xmd
ml2dextra (folder containing iteration data)
ml2d_images_average.xmp
ml2dimages.xmd

However I am having trouble now to write a similar script for generating
initial volume using RANSAC.
Is there a way to use the protocol_ransac.py in a script similar to one
mentioned above? If not then could some one guide me regarding this?
Apart from this I would also like to know as to how I can import the
classes generated as mentioned above to scipion gui to visualize them.

Thank you

Best Regards
Ashutosh
