scheduler.conf is created in the job directory by the remote (w.r.t. "submit.py") submitting system on stage-in. It is a Java-Style .properties pair file. It contains some properties that the submit system may use to make decisions about how many nodes to request, max walltime, etc. It seems to contain the following properties: KEY ACCEPTABLE VALUES COMMENTS jobtype MISSING (No key), "", "direct","mpi" Are these all? mpi_processes MISSING, "", 1,2,3... INT: Default to 1 if missing/empty threads_per_process MISSING, "", 1,2,3... INT: Default to 1 nodes MISSING, "", 1,2,3... Default to 1 runhours MISSING, "", [0.0, inf) FLOAT: Default to queue max?
