Overview
========

This batch system is based on a database (MySql or PostgreSQL), a script
language (Perl) and an optional scalable administrative tool (component of
Taktuk framework). It is composed of modules which interact only with database
and are executed as independent programs.
A Restful API is implemented on top of the database. So it abstracts the
mechanisms inside OAR and make it easier to implement some interfaces (like web
interfaces).

Main features :

    * Batch and Interactive jobs
    * Admission rules
    * Walltime
    * Matching of resources (job/node properties)
    * Hold and resume jobs
    * Multi-schedulers support (simple fifo and fifo with matching)
    * Multi-queues with priority
    * Best-effort queues (for exploiting idle resources)
    * Check compute nodes before launching
    * Epilogue/Prologue scripts
    * Activity visualization tools (Monika)
    * No Daemon on compute nodes
    * rsh and ssh as remote execution protocols (managed by Taktuk)
    * Dynamic insertion/deletion of compute node
    * Logging
    * Backfiling
    * First-Fit Scheduler with matching resource
    * Advance Reservation
    * Environnement of Demand support (Ka-tools integration)
    * Grid integration with Cigri system
    * Simple Desktop Computing Mode
