AOB APEL parser develpments The APEL team is planning t redevelp the APEL parsers ver the summer. Fr this, we need a gd quantity f different batch system lg files t test against. We need t catch as many edge cases as we can in ur initial testing. What we need is the batch system 'event lg' files. A few megabytes frm each site wuld be plenty. If yu have 'blah' installed n yur CE, blah lg files fr the same dates wuld be useful as well. Please als tell us: the versin f the batch system RPM f the batch system yu are using the GOCDB name f yur site. The batch systems we are planning t supprt are: PBS / Trque; LSF; Grid Engine; SLURM If anyne is using a different batch system and feels that APEL shuld supprt it, they shuld get in tuch. Please send lgs and / r questins t apel- admins@mailtalk.ac.uk. Cmment: In general upgrading the batch system, in particular majr updates, can change the frmat f the lg files parsed by the APEL parser, and site managers shuld first assess the impact f the upgrade, fr example lking fr ther sites wh already upgraded the batch system, r sending a first lg t the APEL team t check fr changes.
