Enables Ray distributed computing framework deployment on SGE infrastructure, similar to existing SLURM integrations.

Implementation

Go cluster manager (examples/ray/ray_cluster_manager.go)

  • Manages Ray head/worker lifecycle via qsub/qstat APIs
  • Extracts hostnames from queue@hostname format for worker discovery
  • Signal-based graceful shutdown

Shell scripts for rapid deployment

  • start_ray_cluster.sh: Launches head + N workers as SGE jobs
  • stop_ray_cluster.sh: Cleanup via qdel
  • POSIX-compliant regex (sed) for cross-platform job ID extraction

Python example (example_ray_job.py)

  • Monte Carlo Pi estimation (vectorized numpy)
  • Distributed matrix ops and Ray actors
  • Auto-connect to SGE-managed cluster

Documentation (docs/ray-integration.md, examples/ray/README.md)

  • Manual vs. automated cluster launch patterns
  • Resource configuration (memory, slots, queues)
  • Network requirements and troubleshooting

Usage

# Quick start
cd examples/ray
./start_ray_cluster.sh 10  # 10 workers

# From Python
python example_ray_job.py --address <head_host>:6379

# Or programmatic Go control
go run ray_cluster_manager.go
// Go API usage
manager, _ := NewRayClusterManager()
manager.StartHead(ctx, 6379, "16G")
manager.AddWorkers(ctx, 5, headAddr, 6379, "8G")

Key API patterns discovered:

  • qstat.ViewJobsOfUser([]) returns current user's jobs
  • qsub.SimpleLRequest(map[string]string{"mem_free": "16G"}) for resource specs
  • JobInfo uses JobID (int), not JobNumber

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

  • hpc-gridware.com
    • Triggering command: /usr/bin/wget wget -O /opt/ocs/ocs-9.0.8-lx-amd64.tar.gz REDACTED --pr�� la/IdenTrust_Public_Sector_Root_CA_1.crt ot_CA.crt t_ECC_Certification_Authority.crt r_manager.go (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

Original prompt

I want to integreate SGE (like SLURM) into Ray. where to do
