class parsl.providers.TorqueProvider(channel=LocalChannel( envs={}, script_dir=None, userhome='/home/docs/checkouts/readthedocs.org/user_builds/parsl/checkouts/0.9.0/docs' ), account=None, queue=None, scheduler_options='', worker_init='', nodes_per_block=1, init_blocks=1, min_blocks=0, max_blocks=100, parallelism=1, launcher=AprunLauncher(overrides=''), walltime='00:20:00', cmd_timeout=120)[source]

Torque Execution Provider

This provider uses sbatch to submit, squeue for status, and scancel to cancel jobs. The sbatch script to be used is created from a template file in this same module.

Parameters:
  • channel (Channel) – Channel for accessing this provider. Possible channels include LocalChannel (the default), SSHChannel, or SSHInteractiveLoginChannel.
  • account (str) – Account the job will be charged against.
  • queue (str) – Torque queue to request blocks from.
  • nodes_per_block (int) – Nodes to provision per block.
  • init_blocks (int) – Number of blocks to provision at the start of the run. Default is 1.
  • min_blocks (int) – Minimum number of blocks to maintain. Default is 0.
  • max_blocks (int) – Maximum number of blocks to maintain.
  • parallelism (float) – Ratio of provisioned task slots to active tasks. A parallelism value of 1 represents aggressive scaling where as many resources as possible are used; parallelism close to 0 represents the opposite situation in which as few resources as possible (i.e., min_blocks) are used.
  • walltime (str) – Walltime requested per block in HH:MM:SS.
  • scheduler_options (str) – String to prepend to the #PBS blocks in the submit script to the scheduler.
  • worker_init (str) – Command to be run before starting a worker, such as ‘module load Anaconda; source activate env’.
  • launcher (Launcher) – Launcher for this provider. Possible launchers include AprunLauncher (the default), or SingleNodeLauncher,

Methods

__init__([channel, account, queue, …]) Initialize self.
cancel(job_ids) Cancels the jobs specified by a list of job ids
execute_wait(cmd[, timeout])
status(job_ids) Get the status of a list of jobs identified by the job identifiers returned from the submit request.
submit(command, tasks_per_node[, job_name]) Submits the command onto an Local Resource Manager job.
