Other grid worker options
Some java options can be set specifically for each grid worker. To do this, create a file called clcgridworker.vmoptions
and place it in the folder specified in the Path to CLC Grid Worker field of the relevant grid preset. For information on the relationship between grid workers and grid presets, see Configuring grid presets.
Options that may be of particular use for grid workers include:
-Djava.io.tmpdir=<path>
Set the location where temporary files should be put.-Dskip_lazytmp_cleanup=<boolean>
When set to true,-Dskip_lazytmp_cleanup=true
, the grid worker will not attempt to clean up temporary data from previous analyses that, for whatever reason, were not cleared up previously. This option is intended for systems where temp areas for grid nodes are not local and the specified shared temp location is on a file system that does not support global file locking. As we highly recommend that temporary data areas are local, this option should rarely be of use.
For example, if a clcgridworker.vmoptions
was created, containing the following line, it would, for the grid worker specified in a given preset, set a temporary directory for the grid nodes, overriding the default that would otherwise apply:
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/path/to/tmp
Proxy settings for grid setups are also configured in .vmoptions
options files, as described in Proxy settings.
Setting non-default memory limits for a grid worker is not done using settings in .vmoptions
files. Memory limits are described in Understanding memory settings.
