Hi Rosario, first, thanks for your reply. Yes, I think you are right about the NodeCount. Do you know (or someone else know) if there is a ER model that need to be followed about the "commun usage record properties"? Something like this: "ProjectName" can have none or more "JobId" associated with it. A "JobId" is always associated with only one "ProjectName".... and so on? Or it can be invented it other ways? Thanks all, Carlos.

What is called "NumNodes" in Table A-4 most probably is the "NodeCount" described in the Sections 2.23 (on page 15, draft of May 2005) and 10.5 (page 38). Am I right? If yes, on page 15 it says: "... Number of nodes used. A node definition may be dependent on the architecture, but typically a node is a physical machine. For example a cluster of 16 physical machines with each machine having one processor each is a 16 "node" machine, each with one "processor". A 16 processor SMP machine however, is 1 physical node (machine) with 16 processors. ..." So immagine one job (one job ID) that runs on a small cluster of 8 dual-processor machines ... you would have 1 job ID, 8 nodes and 16 processors. Cheers, Rosario. Lombrera Lombrera wrote:

Hi all,

My name is Carlos and I am devepoping a tool in my graduation course that gonna generate some graphs about statistics data in a grid.

Searching the web I found the UR-WG project and I think it would be cool to use the proposed format recommendation.

I just have some doubts that I hope someone could help me:

a) In the table A-4 "Common Usage Record Fields" from the document "UR-WG-Spec",

When the "NumNodes" Resource Name would be more than 1? In what kind of situations this could occur? In my head, if it is related to JobId, it will ever be 1.

I am wrong? Someone could clarify me?

b) Is there a ER model about this table (Common Usage Record Fields)?

Well... that´s it. Excuse-me for my begginer questions and my poor english. Thanks in advance.

Carlos.
