Hi everyone,

I have set up the Einstein toolkit on a local cluster of 20 nodes with the SGE scheduler. I have not seen any examples of this scheduler being used with the Einstein toolkit.

I have managed to get it working; however it seems if I ask for a certain number of slots that requires more than one node, it correctly allocates these, however all processes and threads are run on the one node and is oversubscribed.

My question is whether anybody has used SGE with the Einstein toolkit and if this is a good thing or not? If it is possible, I can send more details if there are people willing to help solve this inter-node communication problem.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
