    TORQUE 3.0

    3.0.5
    • b - fix for writing too much data when job_script is saved to job log.
    • b - fix for where pbs_mom would not automatically set gpu mode.
    • b - fix for alligning qstat -r output when configured with -DTXT.
    • e - Change size of transfer block used on job rerun from 4k to 64k.
    • b - With nvidia gpus, TORQUE was losing the directive of what nodes it should run the job on from Moab. Corrected.
    • e - add the $PBS_WALLTIME variable to jobs, thanks to a patch from Mark Roberts
    • n - change moab_array_compatible server parameter so it defaults to true
    • b - fix so comma separated file list can be used with qsub -W stagein/stageout. Matches qsub documentation again. (backported from 4.0.1)
    • e - change to allow pbs_mom to run if configured with --enable-nvidia-gpus but installed on a node without Nvidia gpus.
    • b - fix for where pbsnodes displays outdated gpu_status information.
    • b - Fixed a problem where starting pbs_mom with the default -p option would delete running jobs instead of trying to recover them if cpusets were enabled. TRQ-828 Fixes Bugzilla 174.
    • b - Added a check for a NULL job pointer in modify_job. This fixes TRQ-818
    • b - fix problem with '+ and segfault when using multiple node gpu requests. (backported from 4.0.1)
    • b - fix problem with mom segfault when using 8 or more gpus on mom node. (backported from 4.0.1)
    • b - Fixed a bug for NUMA cpusets where Nodes were being underallocated for the job. TRQ-845
    • b - Fixed a problem with cpusets where if a boot cpuset is present under /dev/cpuset torque would only write out 1024 cpus. This was changed from a hardcoded value to be the maximum size found in /dev/cpuset/cpus. TRQ-840
    • b - Fix so child pbs_mom does not remain running after qdel on slow starting job. TRQ-860. (backported from 4.0.1)
    • b - Fix so pbs_mom won't segfault after a qdel is done for a job that is still running the prologue. TRQ-832. (backported from 4.0.1)
    • b - Fixed yet another case where procct would get promoted to Moab causing jobs to never be run. Added remove_procct to ROUTE_PERM_FAILURE case in default_router.
    • b - Fix so qrun jobid[] does not cause pbs_server segfault. TRQ-865. (backported from 4.0.2)

    3.0.4
    • c - fix a buffer being overrun with nvidia gpus enabled
    • b - no longer leave zombie processes when munge authenticating
    • b - no longer reject procs if it is the second argument to -l
    • b - when having pbs_mom re-read the config file, old servers were kept, and pbs_mom attempted to communicate with those as well. Now they are cleared and only the new server(s) are contacted
    • b - pbsnodes -l can now search on all valid node states
    • e - Added functionality that allows the values for the server parameter authorized_users to use wild cards for both the user and host portion
    • e - Improvements in munge handling of client connections and authentication
    • b - block SIGCHLD while reading the munge file to avoid false errors

    3.0.3
    • b - fix for bugzilla #141 - qsub was overwriting the path variable in PBSD_authenticate
    • e - automatically create and mount /dev/cpuset when TORQUE is configured but the cpuset directory isn't there
    • b - fix a bug where node lines past 256 characters were rejected. This buffer has been made much larger (8192 characters)
    • b - clear out exec_gpus as needed
    • b - fix for bugzilla #147 - recreate $PBS_NODESFILE file when restarting a blcr checkpointed job
    • b - Fixed kill_job so it will only run epilogue.precancel when a job is canceled and not on normal job exit.
    • b - Applied patch submitted by Eric Roman for resmom/Makefile.am (Bugzilla #147)
    • b - Fix for adding -lcr for BLCR makefiles (Bugzilla #146)
    • c - fix a potential segfault when using asynchronous runjob with an array slot limit
    • b - fix bugzilla #135, stagein was deleting directory instead of file
    • b - fix bugzilla #133, qsub submit filter, the -W arguments are not all there
    • e - add a mom config option - $attempt_to_make_dir - to give the user the option to have TORQUE attempt to create the directories for their output file if they don't exist
    • c - check if the pid list in mom_get_sample is NULL before freeing (only happens with cpusets enabled)
    • b - Fixed a problem where pbs_server would seg-fault if munge was not running or if an invalid credential were passed to unmunge
    • e - Change to allow qsub -l ncpus=x:gpus=x which adds a resource list entry for both
    • b - fix so user epilogues are run as user instead of root
    • b - fix the prevent pbs_server from hanging when doing server to server job moves.
    • b - No longer report a completion code if a job is pre-empted using qrerun.
    • c - In some rare cases, TORQUE loads a job with no groups. Do not crash in this case.
    • b - Merged revision 5236 from 2.5-fixes. To accommodate this fix I had to modify the signature of job_recov to add a momport so job_recov could properly write to job_save.
    • c - Fix a crash in record_jobinfo() - this is fixed by backporting dynamic strings from 4.0.0 so that all of the resizing is done in a central location, fixing the crash.
    • b - Fixed a problem in qsub where you could not submit a job in interactive mode with gpus in the resource list.
    • b - Initialized PBSNodeCheckInterval to 1. This set the default value for node_check_interval.
    • b - No longer count down walltime for jobs that are suspending or have stopped running for any other reasons
    • b - Fixed qsub so it would still allow -l gpus=x as a gres.
    • c - fix a crash in the dynamic_string.c code

    3.0.2
    • c - check if the file pointer to /dev/console can be opened. If not, don't attempt to write it
    • b - fix a potential buffer overflow security issue in job names and host address names
    • b - restore += functionality for nodes when using qmgr. It was overwriting old properties
    • e - Merged revision 4711 from 2.5-fixes. This adds the -F option to qsub which allows arguments to be passed to a job script.
    • b - fix bugzilla #134, qmgr -= was deleting all entries
    • e - added the ability in qsub to submit jobs requesting total gpus for job instead of gpus per node: -l ncpus=X,gpus=Y
    • b - do not prepend ${HOME} with the current dir for -o and -e in qsub
    • e - allow an administator using the proxy user submission to also set the job id to be used in TORQUE. This makes TORQUE easier to use in grid configurations.
    • b - fix jobs named with -J not always having the server name appended correctly
    • b - make it so that jobs named like arrays via -J have legal output and error file names
    • b - make a fix for ATTR_node_exclusive - qsub wasn't accepting -n as a valid argument

    3.0.1
    • e - updated qsub's man page to include ATTR_node_exclusive
    • b - when updating the nodes file, write out the ports for the mom if needed
    • b - fix a bug for non-NUMA systems that was continuously increasing memory values
    • e - the queue files are now stored as XML, just like the serverdb
    • e - Added code from 2.5-fixes which will try and find nodes that did not resolve when pbs_server started up. This is in reference to Bugzilla bug 110.
    • e - make gpus compatible with NUMA systems, and add the node attribute numa_gpu_node_str for an additional way to specify gpus on node boards
    • e - Add code to verify the group list as well when VALIDATEGROUPS is set in torque.cfg
    • b - Fix a bug where if geometry requests are enabled and cpusets are enabled, the cpuset wasn't deleted unless a geometry request was made.
    • b - Fix a race condition for pbs_mom -q, exitstatus was getting overwritten and as a result pbs_server wasn't always re-queued, but were being deleted instead.
    • e - Add a configure option --with-tcp-retry-limit to prevent potential 4+ hour hangs on pbs_server. We recommend --with-tcp-retry-limit=2
    • n - Changing the way to set ATTR_node_exclusive from -E to -n, in order to continue compatibility with Moab.
    • b - preserve the order on array strings in TORQUE, like the route_destinations for a routing queue
    • b - fix bugzilla #111, multi-line environment variables causing errors in TORQUE.
    • b - allow apostrophes in Mail_Users attributes, as apostrophes are rare but legal email characters
    • b - restored functionality for -W umask as reported in bugzilla 115
    • b - Updated torque.spec.in to be able to handle the snapshot names of builds.
    • b - fix pbs_mom -q to work with parallel jobs
    • b - Added code to free the mom.lock file during MOM shutdown.
    • e - Added new MOM configure option job_starter. This options will execute the script submitted in qsub to the executable or script provided
    • b - fixed a bug in set_resources that prevented the last resource in a list from being checked. As a result the last item in the list would always be added without regard to previous entries.
    • e - altered the prologue/epilogue code to allow root squashing
    • f - added the mom config parameter $reduce_prolog_checks. This makes it so TORQUE only checks to verify that the file is a regular file and is executable.
    • e - allow more than 5 concurrent connections to TORQUE using pbsD_connect. Increase it to 10
    • c - fix a segfault when receiving an obit for a job that no longer exists
    • e - Added options to conditionally build munge, BLCR, high-availability, cpusets, and spooling. Also allows customization of the sendmail path.
    • b - expand the storage for memory usage to avoid overflow
    • b - also remove the procct resource when it is applied because of a default
    • f - Added the ability to detect Nvidia gpus using nvidia-smi (default) or NVML. Server receives gpu statuses from pbs_mom. Added server attribute auto_node_gpu that allows automatically setting number of gpus for nodes based on gpu statuses. Added new configure options --enable-nvidia-gpus, --with-nvml-include and --with-nvml-lib.
    • c - fix a segfault when using --enable-nvidia-gpus and pbs_mom has Nvidia driver older than 260 that still has nvidia-smi command
    • e - Added capability to automatically set mode on Nvidia gpus. Added support for gpu reseterr option on qsub. The nodes file will be updated with Nvidia gpu count when --enable-nvidia-gpu configure option is used. Moved some code out of job_purge_thread to prevent segfault on mom.

    3.0.0
    • e - serverdb is now stored as xml; this is no longer configurable.
    • f - Added --enable-numa-support for supporting NUMA-type architectures. We have tested this build on UV and Altix machines. The server treats the MOM as a node with several special NUMA nodes embedded, and the pbs_mom reports on these numa nodes instead of itself as a whole.
    • f - For NUMA configurations, pbs_mom creates cpusets for memory as well as cpus.
    • e - Adapted the task manager interface to interact properly with NUMA systems, including tm_adopt.
    • e - Addeded autogen.sh go make life easier in a Makefile.in-less world.
    • e - Modified buildutils/pbs_mkdirs.in to create server_priv/nodes file at install time. The file only shows examples and a link to the TORQUE documentation.
    • f - Added ATTR_node_exclusive to allow a job to have a node exclusively.
    • f - Added --enable-memacct to use an extra protocol in order to accurately track jobs that exceed their memory limits and kill them
    • e - When ATTR_node_exclusive is set, reserve the entire node (or entire NUMA node if applicable) in the cpuset.
    • n - Changed the protocol versions for all client-to-server, mom-to-server, and mom-to-mom protocols from 1 to 2. The changes to the protocol in this version of TORQUE will make it incompatible with previous versions.
    • e - When a select statement is used, tally up the memory requests and mark the total in the resource list. This allows memory enforcement for NUMA jobs, but doesn't affect others as memory isn't enforced for multinode jobs.
    • e - Add an asynchronous option to qdel.
    • b - Do not reply when an asynchronous reply has already been sent.
    • e - Make the mem, vmem, and cput usage available on a per-mom basis using momctl -d2. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • e - Move the memory monitor functionality to linux/mom_mach.c in order to store the more accurate statistics for usage, and still use it for applying limits. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • e - When pbs_mom is compiled to use cpusets, instead of looking at all processes, only examine the ones in cpuset task files. For busy machines (especially large systems like UVs) this can exponentially reduce job monitoring/harvesting times. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • e - When cpusets are configured and memory pressure enabled, add the ability to check memory pressure for a job. Using $memory_pressure_threshold and $memory_pressure_duration in the mom's config, the admin sets a threshold at which a job becomes a problem. If duration is set, the job will be killed if it exceeds the threshold for the configured number of checks. If duration isn't set, then an error is logged. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • e - Change pbs_track to look for the executable in the existing path so it doesn't always need a complete path. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • e - Report sessions on a per NUMA node basis when NUMA is enabled. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • b - Merged revision 4325 from 2.5-fixes. Fixed a problem where the -m n (request no mail on qsub) was not always being recongnized.
    • e - Merged buildutils/torque.spec.in from 2.4-fixes. Refactored torque spec file to comply with established RPM best practices, including the following:
      • - Standard installation locations based on RPM macro configuration (e.g., %{_prefix})
      • - Latest upstream RPM conditional build semantics with fallbacks for older versions of RPM (e.g., RHEL4)
      • - Initial set of optional features (GUI, PAM, syslog, SCP) with more planned
      • - Basic working configuration automatically generated at install-time
      • - Reduce the number of unnecessary subpackages by consolidating where it makes sense and using existing RPM features (e.g., --excludedocs)

    TORQUE 2.5

    2.5.9
    • e - change mom to only log "cannot find nvidia-smi in PATH" once when built with --enable-nvidia-gpus and running on a node that does not have Nvidia drivers installed.
    • b - Change so gpu states get set/unset correctly. Fixes problems with multiple exclusive jobs being assigned to same gpu and where next job gets rejected because gpu state was not reset after last shared gpu job finished.
    • e - Added a 1 millisecond sleep to src/lib/Libnet/net_client.c client_to_svr() if connect fails with EADDRINTUSE EINVAL or EADDRNOTAVAIL case. For these cases TORQUE will retry the connect again. This fix increases the chance of success on the next iteration.
    • b - Changes to decrease some gpu error messages and to detect unusual gpu drivers and configurations.
    • b - Change so user cannot impersonate a different user when using munge.
    • e - Added new option to torque.cfg name TRQ_IFNAME. This allows the user to designate a preferred outbound interface for TORQUE requests. The interface is the name of the NIC interface, for example eth0.
    • e - Merged revision 4588 from 3.0-fixes. This enables TORQUE to work with root squash enabled on nfs shares with prologue and epilogue scripts.
    • b - Fixed a problem in Munge where file descriptors were getting left open after failure cases and the munge process.
    • b - Fixed the display for physmem, availmem and totmem for the linux build. The available memory was incorrectly calculated and displayed.
    • b - Fixed a problem where pbs_server would seg-fault if munged was not running. It would also seg-fault if an invalid credential were sent from a client. The seg-fault was occurred in the same place for both cases.
    • b - Fixed a problem where jobs dependent on an array using afteranyarray would not start when a job element of the array completed.
    • b - Fixed a bug where array jobs .AZ file would not be deleted when the array job was done.
    • e - Modified qsub so that it will set PBS_O_HOST on the server from the incoming interface. (with this fix QSUBHOST from torque.cfg will no longer work. Do we need to make it to override the host name?)
    • b - fix so user epilogues are run as user instead of root (backported from 3.0.3)
    • b - fix the prevent pbs_server from hanging when doing server to server job moves. (backported from 3.0.3)
    • b - Fixed a problem where array jobs would always lose their state when pbs_server was restarted. Array jobs now retain their previous state between restarts of the server the same as non-array jobs. This fix takes care of a problem where Moab and TORQUE would get out of sync on jobs because of this discrepency between states.
    • b - Replaced call to getpwnam_ext in pam_pbssimpleauth.c with getpwnam.
    • b - No longer report a completion code if a job is pre-empted using qrerun. (backported from 3.0.3)
    • c - In some rare cases, TORQUE loads a job with no groups. Do not crash in this case. (backported from 3.0.3)
    • e - Added instructions concerning the server parameter moab_array_compatible to the README.array_changes file.
    • e - Added a new function DIS_tcp_close to the the code. This takes care of a problem where TORQUE memory keeps growing because the read and write buffers associated with each tcparray entry would grow to accommodate incoming and outgoing data but would not shrink.
    • c - Fix a crash in record_jobinfo() - this is fixed by backporting dynamic strings from 4.0.0 so that all of the resizing is done in a central location, fixing the crash. (backported from 3.0.3)
    • b - Initialized the default value for node_check_interval to 1.
    • b - No longer count down walltime for jobs that are suspending or have stopped running for any other reasons (backported from 3.0.3)
    • b - Made a fix related to procct. If no resources are requested on the qsub line previous versions of TORQUE did not create a Resource_List attribute. Specifically a node and nodect element for Resource_List. Adding this broke some applications. I made it so if no nodes or procs resources are requested the procct is set to 1 without creating the nodes element.
    • e - Changed enable-job-create to with-job-create with an optional CFLAG argument. --with-job-create=<CFLAG options>
    • e - Changed qstat.c to display 6 instead of 5 digits for Req'd Memory for a qstat -a.

    2.5.8
    • b - fix for bugzilla #141 - qsub was overwriting the path variable in PBSD_authenticate (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - Reversed the order of $(MOMLIBS) and $(PBS_LIBS) in src/resmom/Makefile.in for LDADD = @PBS_MACH@/libmommach.a $(PBS_LIBS) $(MOMLIBS). This fixes a link problem on Suse Linux. This fixes bugzilla bug 143.
    • e - automatically create and mount /dev/cpuset when TORQUE is configured but the cpuset directory isn't there (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - clear out exec_gpus as needed.
    • b - fix for bugzilla #147 - recreate $PBS_NODESFILE file when restarting a blcr checkpointed job (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - Fixed kill_job so it will only run epilogue.precancel when a job is canceled and not on normal job exit.
    • b - Applied patch submitted by Eric Roman for resmom/Makefile.am (Bugzilla #147) (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - Fix for adding -lcr for BLCR makefiles (Bugzilla #146 backported from 3.0.3).
    • e - Modified pbs_disconnect so it no longer does a read to wait for the server side to disconnect first. Also modified write_nonblocking_socket to ensure socket is non-blocking and exit if stuck on EAGAIN return from write.
    • e - added util function getpwnam_ext() that has retry and errno logging capability for calls to getpwnam().
    • c - fix a potential segfault when using asynchronous runjob with an array slot limit (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - In pbs_original_connect() only the first NCONNECT entries of the connection table were checked for availability. NCONNECT is defined as 10. However, the connection table is PBS_NET_MAX_CONNECTIONS in size. PBS_NET_MAX_CONNECTIONS is 10240. NCONNECT is now defined as PBS_NET_MAX_CONNECTIONS.
    • b - fix bugzilla #135, stagein was deleting directory instead of file (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - fix bugzilla #133, qsub submit filter, the -W arguments are not all there (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - If the resources nodes or procs are not submitted on the qsub command line then the nodes attribute does not get set. This causes a problem if procct is set on queues because there is no proc count available to evaluate. This fix sets a default nodes value of 1 if the nodes or procs resources are not requested.
    • b - There is a bug where the procct resource would be passed up to the scheduler if a job were delayed in a routing queue. The procct resource is interpreted as a generic resource in the scheduler. This would cause the job to never be able to run because it had a generic resource that did not exist (procct). It is important for procct to be removed from the Resource_List before it is queried by the scheduler. Code was added to allow the procct resource be removed from the Resource_List while queued and then re-added before the queue evaluation was done when the jobs were re-evaluated.
    • b - Made a fix with procct where initialize_procct was not properly accounting for a "procs" resources.
    • e - Modified default_router() to set the svr_do_schedule flag to SCH_SCHEDULE_NEW if a job was successfully routed to a queue. This helps reduce delays in running jobs when they are promoted from a routing queue to an execution queue.
    • e - I added a new PBSE_ error code PBSE_READ_REPLY_TIMEOUT. This new error code replaces PBSE_EXPIRED in the function PBSD_queuejob. PBSE_EXPIRED is intended to be used for an expired credential and the error in PBSD_queuejob occurs because the select waiting for a read on a tcp socket has timed out.
    • e - add a mom config option - $attempt_to_make_dir - to give the user the option to have TORQUE attempt to create the directories for their output file if they don't exist (backported from 3.0.3).
    • b - Changed configure to show --enable-gcc-warnings as an option as opposed to --disable-gcc-warnings. --disable-gcc-warnings is currently the default configuration. This fixes bug 154 of Bugzilla.
    • eb- NVIDIA gpu mode settings were getting lost when using Moab. Made a change to assign_hosts() to use the neednodes resource if gpus are present in the given spec. Also changed shared mode for gpus to default to reflect NVIDIA's naming scheme.
    • b - Added _GNU_SOURCE as a definition in configure.ac when compiling with --enable-unixsockets to enable the CMSG macros to work.
    • e - Change so Nvidia drivers 260, 270 and above are recognized.
    • e - Added server attribute no_mail_force which when set True eliminates all e-mail when job mail_points is set to "n".

    2.5.7
    • e - Added new qsub argument -F. This argument takes a quoted string as an argument. The string is a list of space separated commandline arguments which are available to the job script.
    • e - Added an option to asynchronously delete jobs (currently cannot work for qdel -a all due to limitations of single threads) backported from 3.0.2
    • c - Fix an issue where job_purge didn't protect key variables that resulted in crashes
    • b - fix bugzilla #134, qmgr -= was deleting all entries (backported from 3.0.2)
    • b - do not prepend ${HOME} with the current dir for -o and -e in qsub (backported from 3.0.2)
    • b - fix jobs named with -J not always having the server name appended correctly (backported from 3.0.2)
    • b - make it so that jobs named like arrays via -J have legal output and error file names (backported from 3.0.2)
    • b - Fixed a bug for high availability. The -l listener option for pbs_server was not complete and did not allow pbs_server to properly communicate with the scheduler. Also fixed a bug with job dependencies where the second server or later in the $TORQUE_HOME/server_name directory was not added as part of the job dependecny so dependent jobs would get stuck on hold if the current server was not the first server in the server_name file.
    • b - Fixed a potential buffer overflow problem in src/resmom/checkpoint.c function mom_checkpoint_recover. I modified the code to change strcpy and strcat to strncpy and strncpy.

    2.5.6
    • b - Made changes to record_jobinfo and supporting functions to be able to use dynamically allcated buffers for data. This fixed a problem where incoming data overran fixed sized buffers.
    • b - restored functionality for -W umask as reported in bugzilla 115 (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - Updated torque.spec.in to be able to handle the snapshot names of builds.
    • e - Added new MOM configure option job_starter. This options will execute the script submitted in qsub to the executable or script provided as the argument to the job_starter option of the MOM configure file.
    • b - fix pbs_mom -q to work with parallel jobs (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - fixed a problem with pbs_server high availability where the current server could not keep the HA lock. The problem was a result of truncating the directory name where the lock file was kept. TORQUE would fail to validate permissions because it would do a stat on the wrong directory.
    • b - Added code to free the mom.lock file during MOM shutdown.
    • b - fixed a bug in set_resources that prevented the last resource in a list from being checked. As a result the last item in the list would always be added without regard to previous entries.
    • e - Added new symbol JOB_EXEC_OVERLIMIT. When a job exceeds a limit (i.e. walltime) the job will fail with the JOB_EXEC_OVERLIMIT value and also produce an abort case for mailing purposes. Previous to this change a job exceeding a limit returned 0 on success and no mail was sent to the user if requested on abort.
    • e - Added options to buildutils/torque.spec.in to conditionally build munge, BLCR, high-availability, cpusets, and spooling. Also allows customization of the sendmail path and allows for optional XML conversion to serverdb.
    • b - --with-tcp-retry-limit now actually changes things without needing to run autoheader
    • e - Added a new queue resource named procct. procct allows the administrator to set queue limits based on the number of total processors requested in a job. Patch provided by Martin Siegert.
    • e - allow more than 5 concurrent connections to TORQUE using pbsD_connect. Increase it to 10 (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - fix a segfault when receiving an obit for a job that no longer exists (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - also remove the procct resource when it is applied because of a default (backported from 3.0.1)
    • e - allow an administator using the proxy user submission to also set the job id to be used in TORQUE. This makes TORQUE easier to use in grid configurations. (backported from 3.0.2)
    • c - fix a segfault when queue has acl_group_enable and acl_group_sloppy set true and no acl_groups are defined. (backported from 3.0.1)
    • f - Added the ability to detect Nvidia gpus using nvidia-smi (default) or NVML. Server receives gpu statuses from pbs_mom. Added server attribute auto_node_gpu that allows automatically setting number of gpus for nodes based on gpu statuses. Added new configure options --enable-nvidia-gpus, --with-nvml-include and --with-nvml-lib.
    • e - The -e and -o options of qsub allow a user to specify a path or optionally a filename for output. If the path given by the user ended with a directory name but no '/' character at the end then TORQUE was confused and would not convert the .OU or .ER file to the final output/error file. The code has now been changed to stat the path to see if the end path element is a path or directory and handled appropriately.
    • c - fix a segfault when using --enable-nvidia-gpus and pbs_mom has Nvidia driver older than 260 that still has nvidia-smi command
    • e - Added new MOM configuration option $rpp_throttle. The syntax for this in the $TORQUE_HOME/mom_priv/config file is $rpp_throttle <value> where value is a long representing microseconds. Setting this values causes rpp data to pause after every sendto for <value> microseconds. This may help with large jobs where full data does not arrive at sister nodes.
    • c - check if the file pointer to /dev/console can be opened. If not, don't attempt to write it (backported from 3.0.2)
    • b - Added patch from Michael Jennings to buildutils/torque.spec.in. This patch allows an rpm configured with DRMAA to complete even if all of the support files are not present on the system.
    • b - commited patch submitted by Michael Jennings to fix bug 130. TORQUE on the MOM would call lstat as root when it should call it as user in open_std_file.
    • e - Added capability to automatically set mode on Nvidia gpus. Added support for gpu reseterr option on qsub. Removed server attribute auto_node_gpu. The nodes file will be updated with Nvidia gpu count when --enable-nvidia-gpu configure option is used. Moved some code out of job_purge_thread to prevent segfault on mom.
    • b - Fixed problem where calling qstat with a non-existent job id would hang the qstat command. This was only a problem when configured with MUNGE.
    • b - fix a potential buffer overflow security issue in job names and host address names
    • b - restore += functionality for nodes when using qmgr. It was overwriting old properties (backported from 3.0.2)
    • e - Applied patch submitted by Eric Roman. This patch addresses some build issues with BLCR, and fixes an error where BLCR would report -ENOSUPPORT when trying to checkpoint a parallel job. The patch adds a --with-blcr option to configure to find the path to the BLCR libaries. There are --with-blcr-include, --with-blcr-lib and --with-blcr-bin to override the search paths, if necessary. The last option, --with-blcr-bin is used to generate contrib/blcr/checkpoint_script and contrib/blcr/restart_script from the information supplied at configure time.
    • b - Added the -l (listener) option to the man page for pbs_server. The -l option has been part of TORQUE for quite some time but the option has never been documented.

    2.5.5
    • b - change so gpus get written back to nodes file
    • e - make it so that even if an array request has multiple consecutive '%' the slot limit will be set correctly
    • b - Fixed bug in job_log_open where the global variable logpath was freed instead of joblogpath.
    • b - Fixed memory leak in function procs_requested.
    • b - Validated incoming data for escape_xml to prevent a seg-fault with incoming null pointers
    • e - Added submit_host and init_work_dir as job attributes. These two values are now displayed with a qstat -f. The submit_host is the name of the host from where the job was submitted. init_work_dir is the working directory as in PBS_O_WORKDIR.
    • e - change so blcr checkpoint jobs can restart on different node. Use configure --enable-blcr to allow.
    • b - remove the use of a GNU specific function, and fix an error for solaris builds
    • b - Updated PBS_License.txt to remove the implication that the software is not freely redistributable.
    • b - remove the $PBS_GPUFILE when job is done on mom
    • b - fix a race condition when issuing a qrerun followed by a qdel that caused
    • the job to be queued instead of deleted sometimes.
    • e - Implemented Bugzilla Bug 110. If a host in the nodes file cannot be resolved at startup the server will try once every 5 minutes until the node will resolve and it will add it to the nodes list.
    • e - Added a "create" method to pbs_server init.d script so a serverdb file can be created if it does not exist at startup time. This is an enhancement in reference to Bugzilla bug 90.
    • e - Add code to verify the group list as well when VALIDATEGROUPS is set in torque.cfg (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - Fix a bug where if geometry requests are enabled and cpusets are enabled, the cpuset wasn't deleted unless a geometry request was made. (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - Fix a race condition when starting pbs_mom with the -q option. exitstatus was getting overwritten and as a result jobs would not always be requeued to pbs_server but were being deleted instead. (backported from 3.0.1)
    • e - Add a configure option --with-tcp-retry-limit to prevent potential 4+ hour hangs on pbs_server. We recommend --with-tcp-retry-limit=2 (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - preserve the order on array strings in TORQUE, like the route_destinations for a routing queue (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - fix bugzilla #111, multi-line environment variables causing errors in TORQUE. (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - allow apostrophes in Mail_Users attributes, as apostrophes are rare but legal email characters (backported from 3.0.1)
    • b - Fixed a problem in parse_node_token where the local static variable pt would be advanced past the end of the line input if there is no newline character at the end of the nodes file.

    2.5.4
    • f - added the ability to track gpus. Users set gpus=X in the nodes file for relevant node, and then request gpus in the nodes request: -l nodes=X[:ppn=Y][:gpus=Z]. The gpus appear in $PBS_GPUFILE, a new environment variable, in the form: <hostname>-gpu<index> and in a new job attribute exec_gpus: <hostname>-gpu/<index>[+<hostname>-gpu/<index>...]
    • b - clean up job MOM checkpoint directory on checkpoint failure
    • e - Bugzilla bug 91. Check the status before the service is actually started. (Steve Traylen - CERN)
    • e - Bugzilla bug 89. Only touch lock/subsys files if service actually starts. (Steve Traylen - CERN)
    • c - when using job_force_cancel_time, fix a crash in rare cases
    • e - add server parameter moab_array_compatible. When set to true, this parameter places a limit hold on jobs past the slot limit. Once one of the unheld jobs completes or is deleted, one of the held jobs is freed.
    • b - fix a potential memory corruption for walltime remaining for jobs (Vikentsi Lapa)
    • b - fix potential buffer overrun in pbs_sched (Bugzilla #98, patch from Stephen Usher @ University of Oxford)
    • e - check if a process still exists before killing it and sleeping. This speeds up the time for killing a task exponentially, although this will show mostly for SMP/NUMA systems, but it will help everywhere. (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • b - Fixed a problem where the -m n (request no mail on qsub) was not always being recongnized.
    • b - Added patch for bug 101 by Martin Siegert. A null string was causing a segfault in pbs_server when record_jobinfo called into attr_to_string.
    • b - Submitted patch from Vikentsi Lapa for bug 104. This patch adds the global variable pbsuser and sets it to the user id of the current user. This was needed for cygwin because the code had hard coded the value of 0 for root for seteuid. In the case of cygwin root cannot be used.
    • b - Fix for reque failures on mom. Forked pbs_mom would silently segfault and job was left in Exiting state.
    • b - prevent the nodes file from being overwritten when running make packages
    • b - change so "mom_checkpoint_job_has_checkpoint" and "execing command" log messages do not always get logged

    2.5.3
    • b - stop reporting errors on success when modifying array ranges
    • b - don't try to set the user id multiple times
    • b - added some retrying to get connection and changed some log messages when doing a pbs_alterjob after a checkpoint
    • c - fix segfault in tracejob. It wasn't malloc'ing space for the null terminator
    • e - add the variables PBS_NUM_NODES and PBS_NUM_PPN to the job environment (TRQ-6)
    • e - be able to append to the job's variable_list through the API (TRQ-5)
    • e - Added support for munge authentication. This is an alternative for the default ruserok remote authentication and pbs_iff. This is a compile time option. The configure option to use is --enable-munge-auth. Ken Nielson (TRQ-7) September 15, 2010.
    • b - fix the dependency hold for arrays. They were accidentally cleared before (RT 8593)
    • e - add a logging statement if sendto fails at any points in rpp_send_out
    • b - Applied patch submitted by Will Nolan to fix bug 76. "blocking read does not time out using signal handler"
    • e - Added functionality that allows the values for the server parameter authorized_users to use wild cards for both the user and host portion.
    • c - corrected a segfault when display_job_server_suffix is set to false and job_suffix_alias was unset.
    • b - Bugzilla bug 84. Security bug on the way checkpoint is being handled. (Robin R. - Miami Univ. of Ohio)
    • e - Now saving serverdb as an xml file instead of a byte-dump, thus allowing canned installations without qmgr scripts, as well as more portability. Able to upgrade automatically from 2.1, 2.3, and 2.4
    • e - serverdb as xml is now optional, and it has to be configured with --enable-server-xml. Each setting (normal and xml-enabled) can load the other format
    • e - Created the ability to log all jobs to a file. The new file is located under $TORQUE_HOME/job_logs. The file follows the same naming format as server_logs and mom_logs. The name is derived from the current date. This log file is optional. It can be activated using a new server parameter record_job_info. By default this is false. If set to true it will begin recording every job record when the job is purged.
    • b - fix to cleanup job files on MOM after a BLCR job is checkpointed and held
    • b - make the tcp reading buffer able to grow dynamically to read larger values in order to avoid "invalid protocol" messages
    • e - change so checkpoint files are transfered as the user, not as root.
    • f - Added configure option --with-servchkptdir which allows specifying path for server's checkpoint files
    • b - could not set the server HA parameters lock_file_update_time and lock_file_check_time previously. Fixed.
    • e - Added new server parameter record_job_script. This works with record_job_info. These are both boolean values and default to false. record_job_info must be true in order for record_job_script to be enabled. If both values are enabled the entire content of the job script will be recorded to the job log file.
    • e - qpeek now has the options --ssh, --rsh, --spool, --host, -o, and -e. Can now output both the STDOUT and STDERR files. Eliminated numlines, which didn't work.
    • e - Added the server parameters job_log_file_max_size, job_log_file_roll_depth and job_log_keep_days to help manage job log files.
    • b - fix to prevent a possible segfault when using checkpointing.

    2.5.3
    • e - Allow the nodes file to use the syntax node[0-100] in the name to create identical nodes with names node0, node1, ..., node100. (also node[000-100] => node000, node001, ... node100)
    • b - fix support of the 'procs' functionality for qsub.
    • b - remove square brackets [] from job and default stdout/stderr filenames for job arrays (fixes conflict with some non-bash shells)
    • n - fix build system so README.array_changes is included in tar.gz file made with "make dist"
    • n - fix build system so contrib/pbsweb-lite-0.95.tar.gz, contrib/qpool.gz and contrib/README.pbstools are included the the tar.gz file made with "make dist"
    • c - fixed crash when moving the job to a different queue (bugzilla 73)
    • e - Modified buildutils/pbs_mkdirs.in to create server_priv/nodes file at install time. The file only shows examples and a link to the TORQUE documentation. This enhancement was first committed to trunk.
    • c - fix pbs_server crash from invalid qsub -t argument
    • b - fix so blcr checkpoint jobs work correctly when put on hold
    • b - fixed bugzilla #75 where pbs_server would segfault with a double free when calling qalter on a running job or job array.
    • e - Changed free_br back to its original form and modifed copy_batchrequest to make a copy of the rq_extend element which will be freed in free_br.
    • b - fix condition where job array "template" may not get cleaned up properly after a server restart
    • b - fix to get new pagg ID and add additional CSA records when restarting from checkpoint
    • e - added documentation for pbs_alterjob_async(), pbs_checkpointjob(), pbs_fbserver(), pbs_get_server_list() and pbs_sigjobasync().
    • b - Commited patch from Eygene Ryanbinkin to fix bug 61. /dev/null would under some circumstances have its permissions modified when jobs exited on a compute node.
    • b - only clear the MOM state when actually running the health check script
    • e - allow input of walltime in the format of [DD]:HH:MM:SS
    • b - Fix so BLCR checkpoint files get copied to server on qchkpt and periodic checkpoints

    2.5.1
    • b - modified Makefile.in and Makefile.am at root to include contrib/AddPrivileges

    2.5.0
    • b - Updated URLs in README.torque file at root of build.
    • b - Updated URLs in INSTALL file at root of build.
    • e - Added new server config option alias_server_name. This option allows the MOM to add an additional server name to be added to the list of trusted addresses. The point of this is to be able to handle alias ip addresses. UDP requests that come into an aliased ip address are returned through the primary ip address in TORQUE. Because the address of the reply packet from the server is not the same address the MOM sent its HELLO1 request, the MOM drops the packet and the MOM cannot be added to the server.
    • b - When the server parameter auto_node_np is set to true it is suppose to set the number of processors of a node to the value returned by the MOM in the ncpus value as returned in pbsnodes. If the configured processor value is less thanncpus the value is adjusted but if it is greater the value was not adjusted. This fix enables pbs_server to adjust processor values down as well as up.
    • e - Changed qsub to allow for a -l nodes=x+procs=y syntax.
    • b - Made a fix to qmgr.c in is_attr. When checking node names against attribute keywords is_attr used strncmp and limited the length of the compare to the length of the keyword. So node names like stateless were tagged as an error. (replaced strncmp with strcmp)
    • e - Enabled TORQUE to be able to parse the -l procs=x node spec. Previously TORQUE simply recored the value of x for procs in Resources_List. It now takes that value and allocates x processors packed on any available node. (Ken Nielson Adaptive Computing. June 17, 2010)
    • f - added full support (server-scheduler-mom) for Cygwin (UIIP NAS of Belarus, uiip.bas-net.by)
    • f - architecture and build system changes to support Cygwin (Igor Ilyenko, UIIP Minsk)
    • b - fixed EINPROGRESS in net_client.c. This signal appears every time of connecting and requires individual processing. The old erroneous processing brought to big network delay, especially on Cygwin.
    • e - improved signal processing after connecting in client_to_svr and added own implementation of bindresvport for OS which lack it (Igor Ilyenko, UIIP Minsk)
    • f - created permission checking of Windows (Cygwin) users, using mkpasswd, mkgroup and own functions IamRoot, IamUser (Yauheni Charniauski, UIIP Minsk)
    • f - created permission checking of submited jobs (Vikentsi Lapa, UIIP Minsk)
    • f - Added the --disable-daemons configure option for start server-sched-mom as Windows services, cygrunsrv.exe goes its into background independently.
    • e - Adapted output of Cygwin's diagnostic information (Yauheni Charniauski, UIIP Minsk)
    • b - Changed pbsd_main to call daemonize_server early only if high_availability_mode is set.
    • e - removed the very old A_ macros (patch provided by Simon Toth, CESNET z.s.p.o.)
    • e - added new qmgr server attributes (clone_batch_size, clone_batch_delay) for controlling job cloning (Bugzilla #4)
    • e - added new qmgr attribute (checkpoint_defaults) for setting default checkpoint values on Execution queues (Bugzilla #1)
    • b - Merged revision 3268 from 2.4-fixes. removed block of code that broke pbs_statjob for requested attributes
    • e - print a more informative error if pbs_iff isn't found when trying to authenticate a client
    • n - 01/18/2010. Merged 2.4.5 revisions 3268-3375.
    • e - added qmgr server attribute job_start_timeout, specifies timeout to be used for sending job to mom. If not set, tcp_timeout is used.
    • e - added -DUSESAVEDRESOURCES code that uses servers saved resources used for accounting end record instead of current resources used for jobs that stopped running while MOM was not up.
    • e - TORQUE job arrays now use arrays to hold the job pointers and not linked lists (allows constant lookup).
    • f - Allow users to delete a range of jobs from the job array (qdel -t)
    • f - Added a slot limit to the job arrays - this restricts the number of jobs that can concurrently run from one job array.
    • f - added support for holding ranges of jobs from an array with a single qhold (using the -t option).
    • f - now ranges of jobs in an array can be modified through qalter (using the -t option).
    • f - jobs can now depend on arrays using these dependencies: afterstartarray, afterokarray, afternotokarray, afteranyarray
    • f - added support for using qrls on arrays with the -t option
    • e - complte overhaul of job array submission code
    • f - by default show only a single entry in qstat output for the whole array (qstat -t expands the job array)
    • f - server parameter max_job_array_size limits the number of jobs allowed in an array
    • b - job arrays can no longer circumvent max_user_queuable
    • b - job arrays can no longer circumvent max_queuable
    • f - added server parameter max_slot_limit to restrict slot limits
    • e - changed array names from jobid-index to jobid[index] for consistency
    • n - TORQUE 2.5.0 released on 19-07-10

    TORQUE 2.4

    • e - qpeek now has the options --ssh, --rsh, --spool, --host, -o, and -e. Can now output both the STDOUT and STDERR files. Eliminated numlines, which didn't work. (backported from 2.5.3)
    • b - Modified the pbs_server startup routine to skip unknown hosts in the nodes file instead of terminating the server startup.
    • b - fix to prevent a possible segfault when using checkpointing (back-ported from 2.5.3).
    • b - fix to cleanup job files on MOM after a BLCR job is checkpointed and held (back-ported from 2.5.3)
    • c - when using job_force_cancel_time, fix a crash in rare cases (backported from 2.5.4)
    • b - fix a potential memory corruption for walltime remaining for jobs (Vikentsi Lapa, backported from 2.5.4)
    • b - fix potential buffer overrun in pbs_sched (Bugzilla #98, patch from Stephen Usher @ University of Oxford, backported from 2.5.4)
    • e - check if a process still exists before killing it and sleeping. This speeds up the time for killing a task exponentially, although this will show mostly for SMP/NUMA systems, but it will help everywhere. (backported from 2.5.4) (Dr. Bernd Kallies)
    • e - Refactored torque spec file to comply with established RPM best practices, including the following:
      • Standard installation locations based on RPM macro configuration (e.g., %{_prefix})
      • Latest upstream RPM conditional build semantics with fallbacks for older versions of RPM (e.g., RHEL4)
      • Initial set of optional features (GUI, PAM, syslog, SCP) with more planned
      • Basic working configuration automatically generated at install-time
      • Reduce the number of unnecessary subpackages by consolidating where it makes sense and using existing RPM features (e.g., --excludedocs).
    • b - Merged revision 4325 from 2.5-fixes. Fixed a problem where the -m n (request no mail on qsub) was not always being recongnized.
    • b - Fix for reque failures on mom. Forked pbs_mom would silently segfault and job was left in Exiting state. (backported from 2.5.4)
    • b - prevent the nodes file from being overwritten when running make packages

    2.4.11
    • b - changed type cast for calloc of ioenv from sizeof(char) to sizof(char *) in pbsdsh.c. This fixes bug 79.
    • e - allow input of walltime in the format of [DD]:HH:MM:SS (backported from 2.5.2)
    • b - only clear the MOM state when actually running the health check script (backported from 2.5.3)
    • b - don't try to set the user id multiple times - (backported from 2.5.3)
    • c - fix segfault in tracejob. It wasn't malloc'ing space for the null terminator (back-ported from 2.5.3)
    • e - add the variables PBS_NUM_NODES and PBS_NUM_PPN to the job environment (backported from 2.5.3, TRQ-6)
    • e - be able to append to the job's variable_list through the API (backported from 2.5.3, TRQ-5)
    • b - Added patch to fix bug 76, "blocking read does not time out using signal handler.

    2.4.10
    • b - fix to get new pagg ID and add additional CSA records when restarting from checkpoint (backported from 2.5.2)
    • e - added documentation for pbs_alterjob_async(), pbs_checkpointjob(), pbs_fbserver(), pbs_get_server_list() and pbs_sigjobasync(). (backported from 2.5.2)
    • b - fix for bug 61. The fix takes care of a problem where pbs_mom under some situations will change the mode and permissions of /dev/null.

    2.4.9
    • b - Backed out enhancement for preempted jobs. This was SVN revision 3784. This patch cased qrun to hang and not return when executing jobs.
    • e - Commited changes that changed how preempted jobs are killed. This change uses a SIGTERM followed by a kill_delay SIGKILL to give preemted jobs time to checkpoint before terminating.
    • e - Patch to correctly log attempts to create a cpuset as debug messages. The function im_request() in src/resmom/mom_comm.c logs the message:
      pbs_mom: LOG_ERROR::im_request, about to create cpuset for job 55100.blah
      as an error rather than a debug message (as used in src/resmom/start_exec.c).
      The fix is to replace:
      log_err(-1, id, log_buffer);
      with:
      log_ext(-1, id, log_buffer, LOG_INFO);
    • b - Modified fix in qmgr.c in is_attr to check for the '.' character on resource attributes such as resources_available.nodect. The attribute is striped of the '.' and the element and just the attribute name is used to compare for a valid attribute.
    • b - Made a fix to qmgr.c in is_attr. When checking node names against attribute keywords is_attr used strncmp and limited the length of the compare to the length of the keyword. So node names like stateless were tagged as an error. I replaced strncmp with strcmp. This fix was added to trunk first. Version 2.5.0
    • b - Bugzilla bug 57. Check return value of malloc for tracejob for Linux (Chris Samuel - Univ. of Melbourne)
    • b - fix so "gres" config gets displayed by pbsnodes
    • b - use QSUBHOST as the default host for output files when no host is specified. (RT 7678)
    • e - allow users to use cpusets and geometry requests at the same time by specifying both at configure time.
    • b - Bugzilla bug 55. Check return value of malloc for pbs_mom for Linux (Chris Samuel - Univ. of Melbourne)
    • e - added server parameter job_force_cancel_time. When configured to X seconds, a job that is still there X seconds after a qdel will be purged. Useful for freeing nodes from a job when one node goes down midjob.
    • b - fixed gcc warnings reported by Skip Montanaro
    • e - added RPT_BAVAIL define that allows pbs_mom to report f_bavail instead of f_bfree on Linux systems
    • b - no longer consider -t and -T the same in qsub
    • e - make PBS_O_WORKDIR accessible in the environment for prolog scripts
    • e - Bugzilla 59. Applied patch to allow '=' for qdel -m. (Chris Samuel - Univ. of Melbourne)
    • b - properly escape characters (&"'<>) in XML output)
    • b - ignore port when checking host in svr_get_privilege()
    • b - restore ability to parse -W x=geometry:{...,...}
    • e - from Simon Toth: If no available amount is specified for a resource and the max limit is set, the requirement should be checked against the maximum only (for scheduler, bugzilla 23).
    • b - check return values from fwrite in cpuset.c to avoid warnings
    • e - expand acl host checking to allow * in the middle of hostnames, not just at the beginning. Also allow ranges like a[10-15] to mean a10, a11, ..., a15.

    2.4.8
    • e - Bugzilla bug 22. HIGH_PRECISION_FAIRSHARE for fifo scheduling.
    • c - no longer sigabrt with "running" jobs not in an execution queue. log an error.
    • b - fixed kill_delay. In order to fix and not change behavior, added the parameter $kill_delay to mom's config. Activate by setting to true
    • b - commented out a 'fi' left uncommented in contrib/init/pbs_server
    • e - mapped 'qsub -P user:group' to qsub -P user -W group_list=group
    • e - added -DQSUBHOSTNAME to allow qsub to determine PBS_O_HOST
    • b - fixed segfault for when TORQUE thinks there's a nanny but there isn't
    • b - reverted to old behavior where interactive scripts are checked for directives and not run without a parameter.
    • e - setting a queue's resource_max.nodes now actually restricts things, although so far it only limits based on the number of nodes (i.e. not ppn)
    • f - added QSUBSENDGROUPLIST to qsub. This allows the server to know the correct group name when disable_server_id_check is set to true and the user doesn't exist on the server.
    • e - Bugzilla bug 54. Patch submitted by Bas van der Vlies to make pbs_mkdirs more robust, provide a help function and new option -C <chk_tree_location>
    • n - TORQUE 2.4.8 released on 29-04-10

    2.4.7
    • b - fixed a bug for when a resource_list has been set, but isn't completely initialized, causing a segfault
    • b - stop counting down walltime remaining after a job is completed
    • b - correctly display the number for tasks as used in TORQUE in qstat -a output
    • b - no longer ignoring fread return values in Linux cpuset code (gcc 4.3.3)
    • b - fixed a bug where job was added to obit retry list multiple times, causing a segfault
    • b - Fix for Bugzilla bug 43. "configure ignores with-modulefiles=no"
    • b - no longer try to decide when to start with -t create in init.d scripts, -t creates should be done manually by the user
    • b - no longer let qsub determine the PBS_O_HOST. This work is done on the server and the server code accounts for the connection interface as well as aliasing. Code to set PBS_O_HOST on the server is already there, but now will be active.
    • f - added -P to qsub. When submitting a job as root, the root user may add -P <username> to submit the job as the proxy user specified by <usermname>
    • n - 2.4.7 released on 29-03-10

    2.4.6
    • f - added an asynchronous option for qsig, specified with -a.
    • b - fix to cleanup job that is left in running state after a MOM restart
    • e - qsub's -W can now parse attributes with quoted lists, for example: qsub script -W attr="foo,foo1,foo2,foo3" will set foo,foo1,foo2,foo3 as attr's value.
    • e - qstat -f now includes an extra field "Walltime Remaining" that tells the remaining walltime in seconds. This field is does not account for weighted walltime.
    • b - fixed erroneous display of walltime when start time hasn't been set
    • b - fixed possible segfault when finding remaining walltime (if the job's resources haven't been defined)
    • e - altered the display of walltime remaining so that the xml produced by qstat -f stays consistent. Also updated the man page.
    • b - split Cray job library and CSA functionality since CSA is dependant on job library but job library is not dependant on CSA
    • f - added two server parameters: display_job_server_suffix and job_suffix_alias. The first defaults to true and is whether or not jobs should be appended by .server_name. The second defaults to NULL, but if it is defined it will be appended at the end of the jobid, i.e. jobid.job_suffix_alias.
    • f - added -l option to qstat so that it will display a server name and an alias if both are used. If these aren't used, -l has no effect.
    • b - fixed an off by one error for a case in get_correct_jobname
    • e - altered the display_job_server_suffix parameter and the job_suffix_alias parameter so that they don't interfere with FQDN.
    • b - fixed open_std_file to setegid as well, this caused a problem with epilogue.user scripts.
    • n - 2.4.6 officially released on 02/24/2010

    2.4.5
    • b - epilogue.user scripts were being run with prologue argments. Fixed bug in run_pelog() to include PE_EPILOGUSER so epilogue arguments get passed to eplilogue.user script.
    • b - Ticket 6665. pbs_mom and job recovery. Fixed a bug where the -q option would terminate running processes as well as requeue jobs. This made the -q option the same as the -r option for pbs_mom. -q will now only reque jobs and will not attempt to kill running processes. I also added a -P option to start pbs_mom. This is similar to the -p option except the -P option will only delete any left over jobs from the queue and will not attempt to adopt and running processes.
    • e - Modified man page for pbs_mom. Added new -P option plus edited -p, -q and -r options to hopefully make them more understandable.
    • n - 01/15/2010 created snapshot torque-2.4.5-snap201001151416.tar.gz.
    • b - now checks secondary groups (as well as primary) for creating a file when spooling. Before it wouldn't create the spool file if a user had permission through a secondary group.
    • b - fixed a file descriptor error with high availability. Before it was possible to try to regain a file descriptor which was never held, now this is fixed.
    • e - Added the function prepare_child_tasks_for_delete() to src/resmom/solaris5 /mom_mach.c. This is required for new -P functionality.
    • b - updated to a newer gcc and fixed warnings related to disregarded return values. Logging was added.
    • b - Modified code specific to Solaris5 platform. Changes were made so TORQUE would successfully compile on sun system. Tcl still does not successfully compile. configure needs to be done with the --disable-gui option. 01/21/2010.
    • e - Moved the function prepare_child_tasks_for_delete() from the mom_mach.c files for Linux and Solaris5. This routine is not platform dependent.
      No other platform had the function yet. 01/22/2010
    • e - Commited changes that will allow TORQUE to compile on the Solaris5 platform with gcc-warnings enabled.
    • b - No longer overwrites the user's environment when spoolasfinalname is set. Now the environment is handled correctly.
    • b - No longer will segfault if pbs_mom restarts in a bad state (user environment not initialized)
    • e - added qmgr server attribute job_start_timeout, specifies timeout to be used for sending job to mom. If not set, tcp_timeout is used.
    • e - added -DUSESAVEDRESOURCES code that uses servers saved resources used for accounting end record instead of current resources used for
      jobs that stopped running while MOM was not up.
    • e - Changing MAXNOTDEFAULT behavior. Now, by default, max is not default and max can be configured as default with --enable-maxdefault.
    • n - TORQUE 2.4.5 released on 02/02/10 (Groundhog day!)

    2.4.4
    • b - fixed contrib/init.d/pbs_mom so that it doesn't overwrite $args defined in /etc/sysconfig/pbs_mom
    • b - when spool_as_final_name is configured for the mom, no longer send email messages about not being able to copy the spool file
    • b - when spool_as_final_name is configured for the mom, correctly substitue job environment variables
    • f - added logging for email events, allows the admin to check if emails are being sent correctly
    • b - Made a fix to svr_get_privilege(). On some architectures a non-root user name would be set to null after the line " host_no_port[num_host_chars] = 0;" because num_host_chars was = 1024 which was the size of hot_no_port. The null termination needed to happen at 1023. There were other problems with this function so code was added to validate the incoming variables before they were used. The symptom of this bug was that non-root managers and operators could not perform operations where they should have had rights.
    • b - Missed a format statement in an sprintf statement for the bug fix above.
    • b - Fixed a way that a file descriptor (for the server lockfile) could be used without initialization. RT 6756

    2.4.3
    • b - fix PBSD_authenticate so it correctly splits PATH with : instead of ; (bugzilla #33)
    • e - Refactored tcp_dis function calls. With the removal of the global variable dis_buffer the seperation of dis calls was no longer needed. the tcp_dis function calls have been removed and all calls go to the dis functions whether using tcp or rpp.
    • b - pbs_mom now sets resource limits for tasks started with tm_spawn (Chris Samuel, VPAC)
    • c - fix assumption about size of unsocname.sun_path in Libnet/net_server.c
    • b - Fix for Bugzilla bug 34. "torque 2.4.X breaks OSC's mpiexec". fix in src/server src/server/stat_job.c revision 3268.
    • b - Fix for Bugzilla bug 35 - printing the wrong pid (normal mode) and not printing any pid for high availability mode.
    • f - added a diagnostic script (contrib/diag/tdiag.sh). This script grabs the log files for the server and the mom, records the output of qmgr -c 'p s' and the nodefile, and creates a tarfile containing these.
    • b - Changed momctl -s to use exit(EXIT_FAILURE) instead of return(-1) if a mom is not running.
    • b - Fix for Bugzilla bug 36. "qsub crashes with long dependency list".
    • b - Fix for Bugzilla bug 41. "tracejob creates a file in the local directory".

    2.4.2
    • b - Changed predicate in pbsd_main.c for the two locations where daemonize_server is called to check for the value of high_availability_mode to determine when to put the server process in the background.
    • b - Added pbs_error_db.h to src/include/Makefile.am and src/include/Makefile.in. pbs_error_db.h now needed for install.
    • e - Modified pbs_get_server_list so the $TORQUE_HOME/server_name file will work with a comma delimited string or a list of server names separated by a new line.
    • b - fix tracejob so it handles multiple server and MOM logs for the same day
    • f - Added a new server parameter np_default. This allows the administrator to change the number of processors to a unified value dynamically for the entire cluster.
    • e - high availability enhanced so that the server spawns a separate thread to update the "lock" on the lockfile. Thread update and check time are both setable parameters in qmgr.
    • b - close empty ACL files

    2.4.1
    • e - added a prologue and epilogue option to the list of resources for qsub -l which allows a per job prologue or epilogue script. The syntax for the new option is qsub -l prologue=<prologue script>, epilogue=<epilogue script>
    • f - added a "-w" option to qsub to override the working directory
    • e - changes needed to allow relocatable checkpoint jobs. Job checkpoint files are now under the control of the server.
    • c - check filename for NULL to prevent crash
    • b - changed so we don't try to copy a local file when the destination is a directory and the file is already in that directory
    • f - changes to allow TORQUE to operate without pbs_iff (merged from 2.3)

    • e - added code to allow compilers to override CLONE_BATCH_SIZE at configure time (allows for finer grained control on how arrays are created) (ported from Yahoo R2461)
    • e - added code which prefixes the severity tag on all log_ext() and log_err() messages (ported from Yahoo R2358)
    • f - added code from 2.3-extreme that allows TORQUE to handle more than 1024 sockets. Also, increased the size of TORQUE's internal socket handle table to avoid running out of handles under busy conditions.
    • e - TORQUE can now handle server names larger than 64 bytes (now set to 1024, which should be larger than the max for hostnames)
    • e - added qmgr option accounting_keep_days, specifies how long to keep accounting files.
    • e - changed MOM config varattr so invoked script returns the varattr name and value(s)
    • e - improved the performance of pbs_server when submitting large numbers of jobs with dependencies defined
    • e - added new parameter "log_keep_days" to both pbs_server and pbs_mom. Specifies how long to keep log files before they are automatically removed
    • e - added qmgr server attribute lock_file, specifies where server lock file is located
    • b - change so we use default file name for output / error file when just a directory is specified on qsub / qalter -e -o options
    • e - modified to allow retention of completed jobs across server shutdown
    • e - added job_must_report qmgr configuration which says the job must be reported to scheduler. Added job attribute "reported". Added PURGECOMP

    • b - Fix so interactive jobs run when using $job_output_file_umask userdefault
    • f - Allow adding extra End accounting record for a running job that is rerun. Provides usage data. Enabled by CFLAGS=-DRERUNUSAGE.
    • b - Fix to use queue/server resources_defaults to validate mppnodect against resources_max when mppwidth or mppnppn are not specified for job
    • f - merged in new dynamic array struct and functions to implement a new (and more efficient) way of loading jobs at startup--should help by 2 orders of
      magnitude!
    • f - changed TORQUE_MAXCONNECTTIMEOUT to be a global variable that is now changed by the MOM to be smaller than the pbs_server and is also
      configurable on the MOM ($max_conn_timeout_micro_sec)
    • e - change so queued jobs that get deleted go to complete and get displayed in qstat based on keep_completed

    • b - Mom should not send checkpoint name and time to server unless checkpoint was successful
    • b - fix so that running jobs that have a hold type and that fail on checkpoint restart get deleted when qdel is used
    • b - fix so we reset start_time, if needed, when restarting a checkpointed job
    • f - added experimental fault_tolerant job attribute (set to true by passing -f to qsub) this attribute indicates that a job can survive the loss of a sister MOM also added corresponding fault_tolerant and fault_intolerant types to the "disallowed_types" queue attribute
    • b - fixes for pbs_moms updating of comment and checkpoint name and time

    • b - Fixed pbs_mom's default restart behavior. On a restart the MOM is suppose to terminate jobs that were in a running state while the MOM was up and report them to the batch server where the job will be reset to a queued state. But it should not try and kill any of the running processes that were associated with the job. Prior to this fix the MOM would try and kill running processes associated with any running jobs.
    • n - 01/15/2010 snapshot torque-2.3.10-snap.201001151340.tar.gz created.
    • b - Made changes to source files and configure.ac to enable TORQUE to compile on Solaris5 platform with gcc-warnings enabled. Currently TORQUE must be compiled with the --disable-gui option because X11 support on Solaris is not working with the current TORQUE  build scripts.
    • e - added qmgr server attribute job_start_timeout, specifies timeout to be used for sending job to mom. If not set, tcp_timeout is used.
    • n - 2.3.10 released on 02/02/10 (Groundhog Day!

    2.3.9
    • b - Made a fix to svr_get_privilege(). On some architectures a non-root user name would be set to null after the line " host_no_port[num_host_chars] = 0;" because num_host_chars was = 1024 which was the size of hot_no_port. The null termination needed to happen at 1023. There were other problems with this function so code was added to validate the incoming variables before they were used. The symptom of this bug was that non-root managers and operators could not perform operations where they should have had rights.

    • valid group name. This helps TORQUE be more robust to group lookup failures.

    2.3.6
    • e - in Linux, a pbs_mom will now "kill" a job's task, even if that task can no longer be found in the OS processor table. This prevents jobs from getting "stuck" when the PID vanishes in some rare cases.
    • e - forward-ported change from 2.1-fixes (r2581) (b - reissue job obit even if no processes are found)
    • b - change back to not sending status updates until we get cluster addr message from server, also only try to send hello when the server stream is down.

    • b - fixed a bug preventing multiple TORQUE servers and TORQUE MOMs from operating properly all from the same host
    • f - enabled 'qsub -T' to specify "job type." Currently this will allow a per job prolog/epilog
    • f - added a new '-E' option to qstat which allows command-line users to pass "extend" strings via the API
    • f - added new max_report queue attribute which will limit the number of Idle jobs, per queue, that TORQUE reports to the scheduler
    • e - enhanced logging when a hostname cannot be looked up in DNS
    • e - PBS_NET_MAX_CONNECTIONS can now be defined at compile time (via CFLAGS)

    • b - corrected pbs_server man page for SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2
    • f - added new pbs_track command which may be used to launch an external process and a pbs_mom will then track the resource usage of that process and attach it to a specified job (experimental) (special thanks to David Singleton and David Houlder from APAC)
    • e - added alternate method for sending cluster addresses to MOM (ALT_CLSTR_ADDR)

    • f - when using qsub it is now possible to specify both -k and -o/-e (before -o/-e did not behave as expected if -k was also used)
    • e - changed pbs_server to have "-l" option. Specifies a host/port that event messages will be sent to. Event messages are the same as what the scheduler currently receives.
    • e - added --enable-autorun to allow qsub jobs to automatically try to run if there are any nodes available.
    • e - added --enable-quickcommit to allow qsub to combine the ready to commit and commit phases into 1 network transmission.
    • e - added --enable-nochildsignal to allow pbs_server to use inline checking for SIGCHLD instead of using the signal handler.
