NAME

6       sge_request - Grid Engine default request definition file format
7

DESCRIPTION

9       sge_request  reflects the format of the files to define default request
10       profiles. If available, default request files are  read  and  processed
11       during  job  submission  before  any submit options embedded in the job
12       script and before any options in the qsub(1) or qsh(1) command-line are
13       considered.  Thus,  the  command-line  and  embedded script options may
14       overwrite the settings in the default request  files  (see  qsub(1)  or
15       qsh(1) for details).
16
17       There is a cluster global, a user private and a working directory local
18       default request definition file. The working  directory  local  default
19       request  file  has  the  highest precedence and is followed by the user
20       private and then the cluster global default request file.
21
22       Note, that the -clear option to qsub(1) or qsh(1) can be used  to  dis‐
23       card  any  previous  settings at any time in a default request file, in
24       the embedded script flags  or  in  a  qsub(1)  or  qsh(1)  command-line
25       option.
26
27       The format of the default request definition files is:
28
29       ·  The  default request files may contain an arbitrary number of lines.
30          Blank lines and lines with a  '#'  sign  in  the  first  column  are
31          skipped.
32
33       ·  Each  line  not  to  be  skipped  may  contain any qsub(1) option as
34          described in the Grid Engine Reference Manual. More than one  option
35          per  line  is allowed. The batch script file and argument options to
36          the batch script are not considered as qsub(1) options and thus  are
37          not allowed in a default request file.

EXAMPLES

40       The following is a simple example of a default request definition file:
41
42       =====================================================
43       # Default Requests File
44
45       # request group to be sun4 and a CPU-time of 5hr
46       -l arch=sun4,s_cpu=5:0:0
47
48       # don't restart the job in case of system crashes
49       -r n
50       =====================================================
51
52
53       Having  defined a default request definition file like this and submit‐
54       ting a job as follows:
55
56       qsub test.sh
57
58       would have precisely the same effect as if the job was submitted with:
59
60       qsub -l arch=sun4,s_cpu=5:0:0 -r n test.sh
61
