This is the new Python wrapper class for the PBS C LIB API. Now you can write utilities/extensions in Python instead of C. The Python wrapper class is tested on: - Intel cluster debian GNU/LINUX potato/woody PBS 2.2p7 - Compaq Alpha Cluster red hat 6.2 PBS 2.3. For this platform we had to add '-lots' to the LIBS line. - It should run on different OSes. Compile the package: Adjust the Makefile to where you installed Python and PBS. Testing the package: pbsmon.py - ascii xpbsmon pbsnodes-a.py - pbsnodes -a pbs_version.py - print server version set_property.py - set some node properties download from: ftp://ftp.sara.nl/pub/outgoing/pbs_python.tar.gz Comments or suggestions mail them to: basv@sara.nl
