Random Grid Engine tips and tricks

The following work with Son of Grid Engine (SGE) 8.1.9 as configured on the University of Sheffield's ShARC and Iceberg clusters.

Jobs with dependancies

You can use the -hold_jid <<job-name or job-name>> option to make jobs run only when other jobs have finished, rather than having jobs start and sit waiting for other tasks to complete.

# David Jones and Will Furnass (University of Sheffield)

# `qrsh` is often the most convenient utility for starting interactive shell
# sessions on Sun/Son of Grid Engine (SGE) clusters but it has some limitations (as
# configured on the ShARC/Iceberg clusters):
# 
# - none of the standard SGE environment vars (e.g. JOB_ID, PE_HOSTFILE,
#   NSLOTS) that are defined in qsub/qsh batch/interactive sessions are set
#   (annoying but not the end of the world);

Notes on setting up a Python debug environment

Used to investigate a segfault in a Python C extension within a Python package.

1. Install debug Python build using pyenv then check is available for use:

   pyenv install -g 3.8.5
   pyenv versions
