Grid Engine キューの種類
This document pertains to the former NIG Supercomputer (2019) and is retained for reference purposes only.
Please note that it does not reflect the behavior or configuration of the current NIG Supercomputer (2025).
Nodes managed by Grid Engine are broadly categorized into interactive nodes and compute nodes.
- Interactive nodes are computing systems intended for users to develop programs or run small-scale, short-duration computations interactively.
- Compute nodes are designed for long-duration or resource-intensive computations that require a large number of CPUs or significant memory.
In both interactive and compute nodes, computational requests (referred to as jobs) are managed using queues in Grid Engine. When the total demand for computing resources exceeds the available capacity, jobs are held in queues and automatically executed by Grid Engine once resources become available.
In the general-purpose section of the NIG Supercomputer, a dedicated Grid Engine queue is configured for each type of compute node.
