Basic Tests

From your CE (let's call it ce.mysite.ac.be):

Simple job submission

• login as e.g. betest000:

su - betest000

• make a small shell script test.sh that contains:

#!/bin/bash

hostname

• change permissions:

chmod 755 test.sh

• run:

qsub -q betest test.sh

• it should give you 2 files similar to the ones below and test.sh.oXXXXX should contain the hostname of the WN on which the job has run

test.sh.e104754
test.sh.o104754

Testing stagein

• still as betest000
• make local tmp dir

mkdir tmp

• make small shell script test_stagein.sh that contains:

#!/bin/sh

queue=${1:-betest}
base=stagein-<tt>date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S</tt>
out=$PWD/tmp/$base.out
err=$PWD/tmp/$base.err
dat=$PWD/tmp/$base.dat
job=$PWD/tmp/$base.job

echo test successful > $dat

cat > $job << EOF
#!/bin/sh
#
#PBS -S /bin/sh
#PBS -m n
#PBS -q $queue
#PBS -o $out
#PBS -e $err
#PBS -r n
#PBS -W stagein=$dat@<tt>hostname</tt>:$dat
#PBS -l nodes=1

hostname
cat $dat
EOF

{| border=1 class="simple"
! exit
|}


sleep 5

while qstat $jid 2> /dev/null
do
    sleep 5
done

echo Output:
echo =======
cat $out
echo =======
echo ''
echo Errors:
echo =======
cat $err
echo =======
echo ''

{| border=1 class="simple"
! echo test failed
|}

• change permissions:

chmod 755 test_stagein.sh

• run:

./test_stagein.sh betest

• if the test fails look at this page for solutions http://goc.grid.sinica.edu.tw/gocwiki/Unspecified_gridmanager_error
• remove tmp dir

Testing local information system

• run now the following command (replace ce.mysite.ac.be and BEgrid-MYSITE by your actual CE and sitename, respectively):

ldapsearch -x -H ldap://ce.mysite.ac.be:2170 -b mds-vo-name=resource,o=grid | grep GlueClusterService

• this should show you similar lines depending on which VOs you are actually supporting

GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-beapps
GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-becms
GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-betest
GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-cms
GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-dteam
GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-hone
GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-ops

From the belnet UI (gridy11.begrid.be):

• run the same command as on the CE to be sure that the site is seen from outside:

ldapsearch -x -H ldap://ce.mysite.ac.be:2170 -b mds-vo-name=resource,o=grid | grep GlueClusterService

• you should see the same output as above, if not check that the necessary ports are open especially the port 2170 in this case
• run:

voms-proxy-init --voms betest

• the following command should return the CE hostname

globus-job-run ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-fork /bin/hostname

• and this one should return the WN hostname of which the job has run on

globus-job-run ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs -queue betest /bin/hostname

• • if you get GRAM Job submission failed because the gatekeeper failed to find the requested service (error code 93), make sure that jobmanager service you try to use is found as a GlueClusterService without queue name.
  • eg for GlueClusterService: ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs-betest you must use globus-job-run ce.mysite.ac.be:2119/jobmanager-pbs -queue betest /bin/hostname
