Adexl - max jobs not exceeding limit 100

firebolt

I saved a job policy with max jobs 1000 and defined same in cdsinit. When simulation is fired and I check individual test job setup, it gets reverted to 100 but no change in command. I verified in bjobs list. I see 100 running jobs only and nothing in pending. And in adexl interactive, I see rest 50 in pending state because they are not submitted to farm yet by adexl (I think). Confirmed with local CAD guy, no limit on number of spectre/bjob licenses (probably not 100). Please help here. 

envSetVal("adexl.icrpStartup" "defaultJobPolicy" 'string "bsub44")

  • A few points:

    1. You should be using ADE Assembler rather than the obsolete ADE XL
    2. ADE remembers the last job policy used in that ADE XL/maestro view and that's what will be shown next time, even if you change the default (the default is for new views).
    3. You appear to be using the per-test job policy settings (Right Mouse over the test name in the Data View assistant, then pick Job Setup). You only really should use that if you really need to override it per-test, otherwise you'd use the setting for all tests using the Options->Job Setup menu in ADE. Again, the per-test job setup will be retained if set
    4. 1000 jobs is likely to strain the ADE infrastructure with ICRP; you should switch to ADE Assembler and use LSCS if you want to run this number of jobs in parallel.
