Linux, LBS, and Analog Artist...

[Steve Avery]

I am having problems getting distributed jobs working in
ADE, and was hoping someone else here has some insight...

We are using IC 5.0.33 in a linux environment (mixed RH 7.3
and RHEL 3.0 with compatability libraries). I have set up
LBS and that seems to work (adptest passes, artmonitor works,
checks from within ADE work).

The problem occurs after I submit a job. If I submit a
Monte Carlo job (using the Monte Carlo tool, not the builtin
spectre function), multiple jobs are spawned which netlist
okay, but then I get the message:

.....
Loading msgHandler.cxt
ERROR (39) : Job Submission Error : Dependency conditions
for job never satisfied : job 28 ended unsuccessfully
Monte Carlo simulation submission successful.
....

I can't find any explanation of error 39, and I can't for the
life of me work out what dependencies are involved (I don't
know of any unresolved schematic dependencies, and the job is
not waiting for another to finish).

Does anyone have a hint they could give me?

thanks

If you can still change course, check the discussion earlier on seemless use of
grid engine
