Appendix W Moab Resource Manager Language Interface Overview

The Moab RM Language (formerly called WIKI) is the language that some resource managers use to communicate with Moab, specifically a native RM. Generally each line represents a single resource or workload in Moab. The line contains the name of the resource or workload followed by a set of <attr>=<val> pairs. Although the Moab RM language follows the same data format for all RMs, each RM type receives and returns it differently. For instructions and examples on using Moab RM language with SLURM or a native RM, see Managing Resources with SLURM and Managing Resources Directly with the Native Interface respectively.
