[Aces-support] question about "exec-host" field

[Peter H Israelsson]

Hello,

Still trying to get my bearings on ACES...this time I have a question about the
"exec-host" attribute of a job (which I looked up using qstat -f jobid).

I started 4 runs on ACES, on the "long" queue.  Here is their information:

Job Id: 8238.ao
Job_Name = run_0508-01_tr2_1
exec_host = a54-1727-077/0

Job Id: 8239.ao
Job_Name = run_0508-01_tr3_1
exec_host = a54-1727-077/1

Job Id: 8240.ao
Job_Name = run_0508-01_tr4_1
exec_host = a54-1727-059/0

Job Id: 8241.ao
Job_Name = run_0508-01_tr5_1
exec_host = a54-1727-059/1

Am I correct in assuming that the first part of "exec_host" is the machine that
the job is running on, and that the second part (after /) is the processor id?
Thus, the way I understand it, the computer named a54-1727-059 has two
processors, referred to as /0 and /1...is this correct?

I am asking because I would like to know if each of these runs is actually
getting its own processor, or whether they are sharing the same processor.

Thanks in advance!

Peter
