How to determine if running on a MS HPC headnode
How to determine if running on a MS HPC headnode
- Hi,
I am developing a Python tool for submitting jobs (reservoir simulation case) to Microsoft Compute Cluster (CCS1 and HPC) or running directly on a Windows machine.
The tool runs fine when submitting jobs with 'job submit' command, however user is also able to run an executable directly on a Windows machine and here the problem starts - I need to check if I am running on a headnode to pick up different executable (the one which uses MS MPI rather than MPI).
In the past I was checkng for presence of CcsScheduler process running, but it doesn't seem to be the best approach since HPC renamed the process and my condition is no longer valid.
I will appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Krzysztof

- I believe the v2 scheduler process is HPCScheduler if that helps at all. You can also try running cluscfg view (or from PSH Get-HpcClusterOverview) which will provide you the name of the scheduler you are connecting too . . . you can just compare that to the name of the machine you're currently running on.
Thanks,
Josh

- Yep, we use the name of the head node to identify the cluster.

- Hi Josh,
Thanks for reply.
Another question emerges: 'is Cluster Name always the same as headnode machine's name?'.
I have seen quite a few CCS/HPC clusters and in every case the cluster's and headnode's name were the same, however is it always the case?
