Dear rollout,
is there a suggested way how to have various types of worker nodes in
one CE and in one
batch system?
We are currently moving from PBSPro to torque at our site and we install
all new nodes
with 64bit SL5, gLite 3.2 and torque mom.
Older machines are 32bit SL4, gLite 3.1 and pbspro mom.
We would like to move to 64bit sl5 where possible, but some nodes have
CPUs without
64bit.
My question is: what is the "right way" the install this mixture for WLCG?
I see quite few options: one/multiple CEs, one/multiple torque servers,
different set of queues for 32bit/64bit, keep 32bit on sl4/wait for
32bit on sl5.
Thanks for any advice,
--
