Are there any generic "scheduler visualization" tools out there? Sometimes I feel it'd be nice if I had a way to find out how my sceduling was performing. i.e. blocks of empty procs; how fragmented the job assignment was; large / small job split, utilization efficiency, backfill status; etc. I use openpbs (torque) + maui and it does have some text mode accounting reports. But sometimes they are hard to digest and a birds eye view might be easier via a visualization.
I haven't found any toolkits yet. Of course, I could parse and plot myself with a bunch of sed / awk / gnuplot but I don't want to unnecessarily reinvent the wheel if I can avoid it. Also, I remembered seeing some cool visualizations (quite animated at that) at one of the supercomputing agencies a while ago but just can't seem to find which one it was now that I need it. Admittedly, some of the visualizations can sway more towards the "coolness" factor than actual insights but still it's worth a shot. Any pointers or scripts other Beowulfers might have are greatly appreciated. -- Rahul _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
