[main]
As the section heading indicates, this is the main section of the
configuration file and where some of the general settings are set.
In this section one can set the options syscall and update_rate.
- syscall
The system call to use when automatically generating the pbsnodes
XML file. For example, one can obtain the XML file via ssh to a
remote host which is able to run the pbsnodes command:
ssh login-node 'pbsnodes -x' > pbsnodes.xml
- update_rate
- How often the display should be updated in milliseconds.
[log]
This section controls the log to be displayed as part of the cluster status
display. The log is able to show overloaded nodes (those whose load is over
the maximum for that node), nodes with a load imbalance (which can occur
when a node shows a nonzero load but isn’t running any jobs) and nodes which
are down. This section allows the control of the position of the log on the
display, how many log lines are to be displayed and which of the various
kinds of node problems should be mentioned.
- log_pos_h
- Horizontal position of the log text (from the left) in absolute screen
coordinates (ranging from 0 to 1)
- log_pos_v
- Vertical position of the log text (from the bottom) in absolute screen
coordinates (ranging from 0 to 1)
- max_log_lines
- The maximum number of log lines to display
- show_overloaded
- A boolean value (True or False) indicating whether or not the
overloaded nodes should be mentioned.
- show_imbalance
- A boolean value (True or False) indicating whether or not the
imbalanced nodes should be mentioned.
- show_down
- A boolean value (True or False) indicating whether or not the
down nodes should be mentioned.
