Hi there, there is single PC. PC is used for testing. It tests external devices. Test requires: - external device to be tested - test to be executed - one or more PCI boards
Currently it is done like that: #!/bin/bash test.sh test_01 device_01 test.sh test_02 device_01 test.sh test_03 device_01 test.sh test_01 device_02 test.sh test_02 device_02 [...] (Test itself knows how many boards does it need) It is suboptimal, as some tests utilize only one board and other tests, which could utilize another board(s) are simply waiting for test to finish. I would like to do it another way instead: - [BEGIN] insert tests into pool - [UNTIL END] choose from pool test, which can be run now (device and PCI boards required are not occupied) and run it, then release board and device I could automate it using some locking scheme (flock or something), but maybe there's something simplier. A tool, which would allow me to define resources and tasks, and then take care of executing them. I have just noticed gridengine, but it seems to be too heavy for that purpose. Would you recommend anything else? Regards, Robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
