[Starcluster] Load Balancer Problems

[Rajat Banerjee]

Hey Amaro,
Thanks for the feedback. It looks like your SGE queue is much more
sophisticated than mine. If I run "qstat -xml" it outputs a ton of
info, but I'm guessing that yours would not.

I assume you're using the latest code, in "develop" mode? (Did you run
"python setup.py develop" when you started working?)

If so, open up the python file starcluster/balancers/sge/__init__.py
and change this line #342:

qstatXml = '\n'.join(master.ssh.execute('source /etc/profile && qstat -xml', \
                                                    log_output=False))

to the following:

qstatXml = '\n'.join(master.ssh.execute('source /etc/profile && qstat
-xml -q all.q -f -u "*"', \
                                                    log_output=False))

I modified the args to qstat. If that works for you, I can test it and
check it into the branch.
Thanks,
Rajat
