 Hi Cluster people,

 As you might have noticed there where cluster problems the last two 
 days.
 The partition where the grid engine is installed was full, I cleaned 
 it up but it was
 full again in a couple of hours, which make the complete grid engine 
 fail, and jobs got lost.

 It took me a while to figure out what went wrong, but I found the 
 problem:

 somebody submitted a couple of 1000 jobs with a 2 megabyte parameter 
 / job

 eg: "qsub somejob.pl <insert 2 megabytes of parameters here>"

 grid engine stores all these commands while the jobs are in the 
 queue, it stores it on
 its own partition and not somewhere on a data partition, the 
 partition went from
 21% usage to 99% usage in a couple of hours. To solve this, the jobs 
 had to be
 changed to read these parameters from a file stored somewhere on the 
 NAS.

 So in the future, tell new people about this, or it will happen 
 again some day.
