Back when I ran Moab at VPAC and VLSCI we used Moab's support for FlexLM as documented here: http://docs.adaptivecomputing.com/mwm/archive/6-0/13.5nativerm.php#flexlm Basically it uses a Perl script to poll FlexLM for the tokens you care about and creates a resource that you can request in your batch job. Of course this doesn't stop people submitting jobs without asking for the resource or, if external people have access to the license server, others from consuming them in between the job starting and your batch job using them, but that's FlexLM for you.. :-( cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel Senior Systems Administrator VLSCI - Victorian Life Sciences Computation Initiative Email: sam...@unimelb.edu.au Phone: +61 (0)3 903 55545 http://www.vlsci.org.au/ http://twitter.com/vlsci _______________________________________________ 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
