    1.1.2 If not existing, then create user pbsdata on the server host. 

      For example:

      boot# xtopview -n 5 -e "useradd -c '#Altair' -d /home/users/pbsdata -g 14901 -m -u 12796 pbsdata"

      Note: The user id and group id above are examples. Use appropriate values that apply to your system to avoid non-existent or conflicting group id and conflicting value user id.


    1.1.3 Follow the fresh install instructions below using pbsdata as the dataservice user.

...

        Installation is complete.


  1.2 2  Optional: After installation of PBS MoMs add the line below to the PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config file of each MoM node:

...

    and HUP the MoM after changing PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config:

      login# pkill -HUP pbs_mom

...

      Add the lines below to the PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config on each MoM node:

        $alps_client /opt/cray/alps/default/bin/apbasil

        $usecp ' *:/home /home'


      and HUP the MoM after changing the PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config:

        # login# pkill -HUP pbs_mom


    2.2.2 Follow the overlay upgrade instructions below.

...

        $alps_client /opt/cray/alps/default/bin/apbasil

        $usecp *:/home /homehome  → optional



4. JOBS

  Submit jobs as regular user such as crayadm from the login node.

...

    Add the line below to PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config if not there:

        $usecp *:/home /home

...

  4.2 As a regular user, request for Cray compute node in a job.


    $ login$ qsub -l select=1:ncpus=1:vntype=cray_compute

      aprun -B sleep 10

      ^D

    $ login$ apstat -rn

    $ login$ qstat -f


    expect that:

      - There is a reservation for a compute node. For example, for NID 28 below we see that it has ApId 26949 in State "conf,claim".


      crayadm@login:~/> login$ apstat -rn

      NID Arch State CU Rv Pl  PgSz     Avl   Conf Placed PEs Apids

...

  4.3 request for Cray login node

    $ login$ qsub -l select=1:ncpus=1:vntype=cray_login

      sleep 10

      ^D

    $ login$ apstat -rn


    $ login$ qstat -f


      expect that:

      - There are no reservations on the compute nodes. For example,

      crayadm@login:~/> login$ apstat -rn

      NID Arch State CU Rv Pl  PgSz      Avl Conf Placed PEs Apids

...

  4.4 submit an interactive job

    $ login$ qsub -I -l select=1:ncpus=1:vntype=cray_compute

...

        - expect that different hostnames are returned

      The steps below may be done inside the interactive job or outside the interactive job (e.g. in another terminal):

...

        boot# xtopview -e "rpm -e pbspbspro-VERSIONserver"


      During uninstallation check that the message below appears:

...
