Okay, I was just too polite. I am British, so what do you expect? I agree.
If they are asking you why, then they don't understand enough to do their job safely.
- Tell them that the root account is never logged on to, and thye'll probably tell you to remove it.
- Tell them that you have RW filesystems, they will probably insist that they are remounted as RO.
- Tell them that you use telnet to access the server and they will tell you to turn it off, even if you have no other access except the console.
Who would you let near the server that could cost you your job?
Regards,
Robin

NAME
ecaccess-queue-list - List available queues
SYNOPSIS
ecaccess-queue-list -version|-help|-manual
ecaccess-queue-list [-debug] [queue-name]
DESCRIPTION
Two different types of queues are in use with ECaccess:
1 - The ECaccess batch queues, which correspond to one system at ECMWF with its specific batch environment, e.g. ecgate will be the
ECaccess queue, which will redirect jobs to ecgate at ECMWF, running LoadLeveler. This ECaccess queue will be given as argument when
submitting a batch job.
2 - The batch queues (or classes) on the systems at ECMWF will be given in the batch job with #@ class = for LoadLeveler.
The names of the ECaccess queues and associated batch queues at ECMWF can be seen with this command. When an ECaccess queue-name is
specified then the details for this queue are displayed (including the list of classes).
The first ECaccess batch queue in the list is the default queue when submitting a batch job with the ecaccess-job-submit command.
ARGUMENTS
queue-name (optional)
The name of the ECaccess queue to retrieve the details.
OPTIONS
-version
Display version number and exits.
-help Print a brief help message and exits.
-manual Prints the manual page and exits.
-debug Display the SOAP messages exchanged.
EXAMPLES
ecaccess-queue-list
List all the ECaccess batch queues (or systems supporting job submission at ECMWF).
ecaccess-queue-list ecgate
List all the batch queues (or classes) on the ECMWF system ecgate.
