This document describes the planning, installation, and basic configuration of SGE 
on the PSI Tier3 cluster.   

The advanced configuration and policies will be described in a separate document.  

---+ Centrally starting/stopping the service

On the admin master node:

Starting:
<pre>
ssh t3ce01 /etc/init.d/sgemaster start
cexec wn: /etc/init.d/sgeexecd start
</pre>


Stopping:
<pre>
cexec wn: /etc/init.d/sgeexecd stop
ssh t3ce01 /etc/init.d/sgemaster stop
</pre>

---+++  Environment

<pre>
  SGE_ROOT=/swshare/sge/n1ge6
  SGE_CELL=tier3
</pre>

---+++  SGE Admon

The SGE administrator account is *sgeadmin*. 

---+++  SGE Services

<pre>
# to be added to /etc/services
sge_qmaster     536/tcp        # SGE batch system master
sge_execd       537/tcp        # SGE batch system execd
</pre>


---
---++  Prerequisits

   * =SGE_ROOT= is NFS mounted root rw on all nodes. 
   * The root can do passwordless SSH (to be relaxed).  
   * The *sgeadmin* HOME is NFS mounted rw on all nodes. 
   * The *sgeadmin* user can do passwordless SSH between any two nodes. 
   * The SGE services are defined in /etc/services on all nodes. 

Here _all nodes_ means all the nodes listed in <a href="#cluster_table">the cluster table</a>.

---++  Install the SGE Execute Hosts

NOTE: to run the install script below locally on the execute node, you will need to define it as a submit and admin host. This requires adding the host using the =qconf -ah hostname= (for admin host) and =qconf -as hostname= (for submit host) commands from an admin node. Else, the new node will not be allowed to contact the master's services.

On each execute host, where the SGE_ROOT and EXECD_SPOOL_DIR must be writable by root, 
(see <a href="#sge_conf">SGE_ROOT/util/install_modules/tier3.conf</a>) 
do the following: 
<pre>
  hostname
    t3wn01
  whoami
    root
  
  <b>export SGE_ROOT=/swshare/sge/n1ge6</b>
  <b>export SGE_CELL=tier3</b>
  
  <b>mkdir /var/spool/sge/t3wn01</b>
  <b>chown sgeadmin.root /var/spool/sge/t3wn01</b>
  
  <b>cd $SGE_ROOT</b>
  <b>./inst_sge -x -noremote -auto $SGE_ROOT/util/install_modules/tier3.conf</b>
    ...
    Install log can be found in: \
    /swshare/sge/n1ge6/tier3/common/install_logs/execd_install_t3wn01_2008-08-11_21:04:43.lo
</pre>
Note: If the script fails uncleanly, you can find the logs in /tmp/install.[PID].

Add the *sgeexecd* service manually:
<pre>
  <b>cp -a $SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/sgeexecd /etc/init.d/</b>
  <b>chkconfig --add sgeexecd</b>
  <b>chkconfig --list sgeexecd</b>
  sgeexecd        0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:off   5:on    6:off
</pre>

Check the SGE services on this host - there should be *sge_execd* running as *sgeadmin* 
on every execute host, e.g.: 
<pre>
  <b>ps auxwf | grep [s]ge</b>
sgeadmin 25309  0.0  0.0 56108 1624 ?        S    21:30   0:00 /swshare/sge/n1ge6/bin/lx24-amd64/sge_execd
</pre>

Test some SGE commands: 
<pre>
  export PATH=$SGE_ROOT/bin/lx24-amd64:$PATH
  <b>qconf -sel</b>
t3wn01
  <b>qconf -sql</b>
all.q
</pre>

---++ How to remove SGE Execute Hosts from the configuration %N%

remove the host from the relevant queues
<pre>
qconf -mq all.q
</pre>

Delete host from its host group (e.g. the "allhosts" group):
<pre>
qconf -mhgrp @allhosts
</pre>

Remove host from exec host list (and possibly also from admin and submission lists):

<pre>
qconf -de t3vm02
qconf -dh t3vm02
qconf -ds t3vm02
</pre>

Remove from configuration list:

<pre>
$ qconf -dconf t3vm02
</pre>

---++ Files

The following files must be installed on all hosts:

%ENDTWISTY%  

---++  Install the SGE Submit Hosts

A submission host just needs access to the shared SGE installation for the binaries. Then, it needs to be configured as one of the allowed submission hosts by running the following command on the master 

<pre>
qconf -as [hostname]
</pre>

After that, you should be able to run commands like =qhost= from the new host.

---+++ Setting the queue's Grid/CMS Environment %N%

In order to set the correct Grid environment on the worker nodes, the default starter method of the queue is overridden by a simple script:

<pre %FILESTYLE%>
#!/bin/bash
######### STARTER METHOD FOR SETTING USER'S ENVIRONMENT #####################
# settings for Grid credentials
if test x"$DBG" != x; then
   echo "STARTER METHOD SCRIPT: Setting grid environment"
fi
source /swshare/glite/external/etc/profile.d/grid-env.sh
if test $? -ne 0; then
   echo "WARNING: Failed to source grid environment" >&2
fi

#source $VO_CMS_SW_DIR/cmsset_default.sh
#if test $? -ne 0; then
#   echo "WARNING: Failed to source the CMS environment ($VO_CMS_SW_DIR/cmsset_default.sh)" >&2
#fi

# now we execute the real job script
exec "$@"
</pre>

---+++ Printing out accounting information at the end of a job %N%

One can use the a queue's epilog setting to execute a script at the end of every job (use =qconf -mq=).

E.g. this script will attach some accounting information to the job's stdout (File =/shome/sgeadmin/t3scripts/epilog.sh=)
<pre %FILESTYLE%>
echo "# JOB Resource USAGE for job $JOB_ID:"
echo -n "# "
/swshare/sge/n1ge6/bin/lx24-amd64/qstat -j "$JOB_ID"| grep -e '^usage.*cpu='
</pre>

---+++ Configuring the scheduling policy %N%

The original configuration did no real fair share scheduling. After reading up a bit on how to implement share tree policies and seeing that this needs a lot of configuration and additional maintenance of user lists (I think), I decided to go for an easier [[https://lists.sdsc.edu/pipermail/npaci-rocks-discussion/2008-July/031927.html][functional policy as mentioned on a mailing list]].

Modify the master configuration
<pre>
# qconf -mconf

...
enforce_user                 auto
...
auto_user_fshare             100
...
</pre>

And then the scheduler configuration
<pre>
# qconf -msconf

...
weight_tickets_functional         10000
...
</pre>

The rationale for doing this is described as follows by an expert (Chris @ gridengine.info):

<pre>
If you are only using the functional policy in a way described by that
article than ...

- The number "10000" shown in that configuration suggestion is arbitrary
- Any number higher than zero simply "turns on" the policy within the scheduler
- The number of functional tickets you have does not matter all that much
- The *ratio* of tickets you hold vs. tickets others hold matters very very much
- No relation to halftime

In the simple functional setup described in that article the key is
that we (a) enable the functional policy by telling SGE there are
10000 tickets in the system and (b) we automatically assign every user
100 functional share tickets.

What makes the scheduling policy then become "fair" is the fact that
all users have the same number/ratio of functional share tickets
(100). This makes them all get treated equally by the scheduler.
</pre>


---++ Configure a parallel environment for SMP parallel jobs %N%

show all existing parallel environments
<pre>
qconf -spl
</pre>

Define a new parallel environment "smp"
<pre>
qconf -ap smp


pe_name           smp
slots             999
user_lists        NONE
xuser_lists       NONE
start_proc_args   /bin/true
stop_proc_args    /bin/true
allocation_rule   $pe_slots        # this forces all slots to be on the same host!
control_slaves    FALSE
job_is_first_task TRUE
urgency_slots     min
</pre>

Now, this environment must be added to all queues that should give access to it

<pre>
qconf -mq all.q

...
pe_list               smp make
...

</pre>


Users can submit jobs by using the =-pe= flag together with the environment name and the number of requested slots
<pre>
qsub -pe smp 4 myjob.sge
</pre>

---++ Limiting memory consumption on a per host basis %N%

The =h_vmem= complex property is the hard limit on job memory consumption. This is actually enforced by SGE, and a job will be killed when it tries ro allocate beyond this limit.
In order to do a correct bookkeeping for jobs already present on the node, it is necessary to declare this property to be a "consumable" property. Also, one should immediately assign a default value for jobs which do not explicitely declare the requirement.

This can be done by editing the complex configuration:
<pre>
qconf -mc

#name               shortcut   type        relop requestable consumable default  urgency
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...
h_vmem              h_vmem     MEMORY      <=    YES         YES        2.5g     0
...

</pre>

Now, one can assign explicit h_vmem limits to hosts using

<pre>
qconf -me t3wn04

hostname              t3wn04.psi.ch
load_scaling          NONE
complex_values        h_vmem=15g
user_lists            NONE
xuser_lists           NONE
projects              NONE
xprojects             NONE
usage_scaling         NONE
report_variables      NONE
</pre>

A user can now declare the requirement for the vmem in his submit statement
<pre>
qsub -l h_vmem=10g simple_env.sge
qsub -pe smp 4 -l h_vmem=2g simple_env.sge
</pre>
Note that the requirement is per requested slot, so in the latter case the required vmem is 8GB!

---+  Bug Fixes

---+++ The directory =/etc/init.d= must be a link

Note: _Due to a glitch in the configuration management area (the management uses rsync from a config area) the =/etc/init.d= had been replaced by a real directory._

The directory =/etc/init.d= must be a link: =/etc/init.d -> rc.d/init.d= 
(strange things may start to happen if this is not the case).  
Fix it on t3ce01.  
<pre>
  [root@t3ce01 rc3.d]# 
  date
     Mon Aug 11 22:22:10 CEST 2008
  
  ls -lA /etc/init.d
    -rwxr-xr-x  1 root     root      1243 Aug 11 10:06 gmond

---+   Troubleshooting
---++  Installation Troubleshooting 

---+++  Missing output

The *inst_sge* script tries to hide its output (omitting my comments on its design), 
so that nothing may be printed on the console if the thing go wrong 
even if you uncomment the ="# set -x"= line.   If this happens check 
the file(s) =/tmp/install.NNNNN= for possible reasons, like 
=Command failed: mkdir -p /var/spool/sge/qmaster=. 

---+++ This is not a qmaster host!

On a start of the SGE master on t3ce01 I got this error message:
<pre>
/etc/init.d/sgemaster start

sge_qmaster didn't start!
This is not a qmaster host!
Please, check your act_qmaster file!
</pre>

Check what the =$SGE_ROOT/utilbin/lx24-amd64/gethostname= returns as hostname.
The entry in =$SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/act_qmaster= must exactly match this name. In my (Derek's) case the hostname returned by the tool was =t3ce01.psi.ch=, while the file only contained t3ce01.

Afterwards I got the following message during startup:
<pre>
/etc/init.d/sgemaster start
   starting sge_qmaster
   starting sge_schedd
local configuration t3ce01.psi.ch not defined - using global configuration
starting up GE 6.1u4 (lx24-amd64)
</pre>
Taking a closer look at the startup with =strace= reveals that SGE is looking for an entry for t3ce01.psi.ch in the =$SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/local_conf= directory. Since there had not been one for t3ce01 before, I ignored this.

---+++ "This hostname is not known at qmaster as an administrative host"

This message is written to the log file when you try to execute a command that 
can be run only on an admin host, e.g.   
%TWISTY{showlink=" Show Details " hidelink=" Hide Details " 
showimgleft="%ICONURLPATH{viewtopic}%" hideimgleft="%ICONURLPATH{toggleclose-small}%"}%
<pre>
<b> ./inst_sge -x -noremote -auto $SGE_ROOT/util/install_modules/tier3.conf</b>
Your $SGE_ROOT directory: /swshare/sge/n1ge6
Using cell: >tier3<
Installation  failed!
This hostname is not known at qmaster as an administrative host.
</pre>
%ENDTWISTY%  

Solution: login to any admin host add the new host to the admin hosts using 
the <b>qconf -ah </b> command.  
%TWISTY{showlink=" Show Details " hidelink=" Hide Details " 
showimgleft="%ICONURLPATH{viewtopic}%" hideimgleft="%ICONURLPATH{toggleclose-small}%"}%
<pre>
  export SGE_ROOT=/swshare/sge/n1ge6
  export SGE_CELL=tier3
  export PATH=$SGE_ROOT/bin/lx24-amd64:$PATH
  
  <b>qconf -ah t3wn01,t3wn02,t3wn03,t3wn04,t3wn05,t3wn06,t3wn07,t3wn08</b>
t3wn01 added to administrative host list
t3wn02 added to administrative host list
t3wn03 added to administrative host list
t3wn04 added to administrative host list
t3wn05 added to administrative host list
t3wn06 added to administrative host list
t3wn07 added to administrative host list
t3wn08 added to administrative host list
  
  qconf -sh
t3admin01
t3ce01
t3ui01
t3wn01
t3wn02
t3wn03

</pre>
You can add hosts even if they not available yet.   
%ENDTWISTY%  

---+++ "Local execd spool directory [undef] is not a valid path"

The reason must be investigated, but a work around is simple: 
create the corresponding directory manually. e.g.:
<pre>
  mkdir /var/spool/sge/t3wn01
  chown sgeadmin.root /var/spool/sge/t3wn01
</pre>

---+++ Uninstalling Execution Hosts
*Note* -  Uninstall all compute hosts before you uninstall the master host. If you uninstall the master host first, you have to uninstall all execution hosts manually.

During the execution host uninstallation, all configuration information for the targeted hosts is deleted. The uninstallation attempts to stop the exec hosts in a graceful manner, then the execution daemon will be shut down, then the configuration, global spool directory or local spool directory will be removed. 

$SGE_ROOT/util/install_modules/tier3.conf has a section for identifying hosts that can be uninstalled automatically

<pre>
  # Remove this execution hosts in automatic mode 
  EXEC_HOST_LIST_RM="host1 host2 host3 host4"
</pre>

Every host in the EXEC_HOST_LIST_RM list will be automatically removed from the cluster.
To start the automatic uninstallation of execution hosts, type the following command:

<pre>
  ./inst_sge -ux -auto $SGE_ROOT/util/install_modules/tier3.conf
</pre>

For more information, please consult the page: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-0697/gesal?a=view

---++ Runtime Troubleshooting

---+++ Logfiles
The default log file for the master can be found in the master's spool area at =/var/spool/sge/qmaster/messages=.
