Proper way to configure PBS on multiple NIC system

Please try this

  • make sure /etc/hosts is well populated across all the nodes ( DNS , reverse DNS is workign fine)
  • qmgr -c “set server flatuid=true”
  1. edit $PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config (restart pbs_mom services after updating this file)
    $clienthost HPC
    $clienthost node0

  2. create a file called clientfile on the PBS Server/Scheduler host in the below location
    /var/spool/pbs/sched_priv/clientfile

cat /var/spool/pbs/sched_priv/clientfile
$clienthost node0

  1. Start the PBS Scheduler as below manually or by updating the startup scripts
    /opt/pbs/sbin/pbs_sched -c /var/spool/pbs/sched_priv/clientfile
    [ if the pbs_sched has already started, then kill the pbs_sched daemon, and start it manually as above ]
