If you run large stat/math jobs on the UCS STARRS nodes Draco and Cygnus,
we recommend you submit them to IBM LoadLeveler, a load balancing batch
system that runs under AIX. You'll get a faster response time with
LoadLeveler if you edit the "requirements" line in the script file to
include the feature name of your software.

For example, to submit a SAS job to LoadLeveler, edit the requirements 
line to:

 #@ requirements = ( Feature == "sas")

This tells LoadLeveler to send the job to the appropriate node/s on the
STARRS cluster for the software you want. You can submit the job from any
node of the STARRS cluster.

You can submit jobs to LoadLeveler for accessing other stat/math software
by specifying the appropriate software name with the Feature parameter.
Below is a list of all stat/math software and the Features associated with
them:

Software                Node/s available                Feature

SAS 6.11                Draco & Cygnus                  ( Feature == "sas")
SPSS 5.0                Draco                           ( Feature == "spss")
SPSS 6.1                Cygnus                          ( Feature == "spss6")
RATS 4.1                Draco & Cygnus                  ( Feature == "rats")
GAUSS 3.2.18            Draco & Cygnus                  ( Feature == "gauss")
GLIM 4.0                Draco                           ( Feature == "glim")
TSP 4.3                 Draco                           ( Feature == "tsp")
LISREL 8                Draco                           ( Feature == "lisrel")
PRELIS 2                Draco                           ( Feature == "prelis")
Maple V 3               Draco & Cygnus                  ( Feature == "maple")
Matlab 4.2              Draco & Cygnus                  ( Feature == "matlab")
Mathematica 2.2         Cygnus                          ( Feature == "math")
Lindo 5.3               Cygnus                          ( Feature == "lindo")
Lingo 2.1               Cygnus                          ( Feature == "lingo")
NAG LIB Mark 16         Draco                           ( Feature == "naglib")
IMSL C LIB 1.0          Draco                           ( Feature == "imslc")

You do not need the requirements line for IMSL Fortran Library and BMDP
because they are available on all nodes in the STARRS cluster.

Users of ( Feature == "stats"): please be aware that this feature will not
be available after April 30, so please start using the above features for
LoadLeveler queues.

To view or copy sample script files for submitting jobs to LoadLeveler, see
the directory /draco1/statmath/scripts/. For example, to copy a script file
for submitting a SAS job, at the AIX system prompt, type:

     cp /draco1/statmath/scripts/sas.script

For script files to run other applications, replace the software name with
appropriate names (e.g. spss.script, matlab.script, rats.script). For help
with submitting batch jobs to LoadLeveler send e-mail to the UCS Stat/Math
Center at statmath@indiana.edu, or call 812/855-4724.
