OpenPbs programming with PYTHON

Introduction

This a openpbs/torque python module. So you can now use python instead of the OPENPBS C API to make OpenPbs programs to set/query queue, node and server attributes.

Installation

To install the python modules for python version 1.6 and higher it is easy:

./configure make make install
As for python versions lower the 1.6 the following procedure is required. First you have to make the python module and test if it works. It depends on your python installation where you want to place the pbs modules. Some good places are:
/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages
/usr/local/lib/python1.5/site-packages
