Hi Ryky/Brandon!

With problems with globus certificate, you can't use globus adaptors. Here
is a work around for that.
But you can't do remote job submission with pbspro adaptors. So this would
be helpful to run jobs using pilot job on single machine.



In the example files change the lrms_url from gram to pbspro. Should look
like this

*# lrms_url = "gram://eric1.loni.org/jobmanager-pbs" # globus resource url
used when globus is used. (LONI)*
*lrms_url = "pbspro://localhost" # pbspro resource url used when pbspro
scheduling system is used.(Futuregrid or LSU Machines)*
*
*
*set the value of number_of_processes to number of nodes you want to
request.*
* *
*number_of_processes = 1 ( the value should be number of nodes not total
number of cores in this case )*

Next step would be to install pbspro adaptors. The adaptors will be
installed by default after SAGA 1.6 release.

*cd $HOME*
*mkdir pbspro_adaptors*
*svn co https://svn.cct.lsu.edu/repos/saga-adaptors/pbspro/trunk/pbspro_trunk
*
*cd pbspro_trunk*
*./configure*
*make*
*env DESTDIR=$HOME/pbspro_adaptors make install*


pbspro adaptors successfully installed.


Next step is to configure pbspro adaptors.

Create .saga.ini file in $HOME directory.

*vi .saga.ini*

Paste the below text in the above file(Edit your account as shown below).

*[saga]*
*  # saga install root,  points to what is set in the environment, as*
*  # SAGA_LOCATION, or use the configure time prefix as fallback.*
*  location = ${SAGA_LOCATION:/var/tmp/saga-1.5.3_python2.6.4}*
*
*
*  # where to find adaptor ini files*
*  ini_path = ${HOME}/saga_adaptors/*
*
*
*
*
*[saga.adaptors.pbspro_job]*
* name      = pbspro_job*
*############# Edit below path and provide your account name
##############################*
* path      = /home/**pmantha**
/pbspro_adaptors/usr/local/packages/saga/1.5.3/gcc-4.3.2/lib*
*#########################################################################*
* enabled   = true*
*
*
*[saga.adaptors.pbspro_job.cli]*
* #binary_path = $[pbspro_location]/bin/*
* binary_path = /usr/local/bin/*


Please let me know if it still doesn't work.
thanks
