NAME

       pbs_submit_workers - submit work_queue_worker to a PBS cluster.

SYNOPSIS

       pbs_submit_workers [options] <servername> <port> <num-workers>

DESCRIPTION

       pbs_submit_workers  schedules  the  execution of work_queue_worker(1) on the PBS batch system through its
       job submission interface, qsub.  The number of work_queue_worker scheduled and run is given by  the  num-
       workers argument.

       The  servername  and  port  arguments  specify  the  hostname  and  port  number  of  the manager for the
       work_queue_worker to connect. These two arguments become optional when the auto mode option is  specified
       for work_queue_worker.

        -t <seconds>
              Abort work_queue_worker after this amount of idle time (default=900s).

        -d <subsystem>
              Enable debugging on worker for this subsystem (try -d all to start).

        -w <size>
              Set TCP window size

        -i <time>
              Set initial value for backoff interval when worker fails to connect to a manager. (default=1s)

        -b <time>
              Set maxmimum value for backoff interval when worker fails to connect to a manager. (default=60s)

        -z <size>
              Set  available  disk  space  threshold  (in MB). When exceeded worker will clean up and reconnect.
              (default=100MB)

        -A <arch>

EXAMPLES

       Submit 10 worker instances to run on PBS and connect to a specific manager:

               pbs_submit_workers manager.somewhere.edu 9123 10

       Submit 10 work_queue_worker instances to run on PBS in auto mode with their preferred project name set to
       Project_A and abort timeout set to 3600 seconds:

               pbs_submit_workers -a -t 3600 -M Project_A 10
