also, setting a scheduler that derives from SGE just provides default values for the template file if a template isn't specified |

Just to provide a tl;dr on this:

@mschubert since you've labeled this a bug, I'm going to go ahead and put in a PR to fix it |
@mschubert when you have time, could you please review #185 ? It should resolve this |
Hi @mstr3336, Thank you for spotting this and also providing the PR.
This is expected behavior, but I agree it should be mentioned more explicitly in the documentation (README, User Guide)
Thanks! The "bug" part here is the incorrect documentation (left over from a previous version), and potentially a wrong PBS template (see below).
I remember putting together the template according to PBS documentation that I found online. This may have been severely out of date, and I've got no way to test this (I only have access to LSF and Slurm). If I'm changing this, I want to make sure that there are not just multiple flavors of PBS with different options. Do you know if PBS Pro is the only PBS scheduler available? (You may be our first PBS user, I've never actually interacted with this scheduler before.) |
* Improved template for PBS submission For #184 , now submits jobs as arrays * Update userguide + README for PBS/Torque * Update changelog * Style and clarity improvements for docs/news, remove commented line from PBS template * PBS template resource list spec changed to "old" syntax According to https://www.pbsworks.com/pdfs/PBSUserGuide13.0.pdf , UG-104, this change hsould be equivalent * Modified PBS and Torque sections in userguide Restructured instructions for setting up custom templates so that they follow instructions on using default templates. For PBS and Torque sections, now only use the relevant `clustermq.scheduler` option for that scheduler, throughout its whole section (Ie, within the Torque section, the option `clustermq.scheduler` is always set to "Torque", likewise for PBS)
According to the README, using a PBS scheduler requires setting
options(clustermq.scheduler="PBS"/"Torque")
, however according to this doc, we should specify the following:I'm confused about which is true, or whether it matters
Cheers!
