Does anybody know of a good alternative to Sun Grid Engine? It seems that Oracle is now charging for this software. I am running a HPC cluster that has Solaris 10 machines and I am adding some nodes that will be running Ubuntu 10.04, eventually the Solaris machines will be migrating to Ubuntu.
Hi,
I was trying to run a program that calls 8 processors (with max. RAM of 2 GB per processor). I want to run this program on my cluster that runs SGE. The cluster has 2 nodes, and each node has 62 cores, and 248GB/node. Currently, I use the scripts below, but the program (softx below) crashes... (0 Replies)

SGE_QMASTER(8) Sun Grid Engine Administrative Commands SGE_QMASTER(8)NAME
sge_qmaster - Sun Grid Engine master control daemon
SYNOPSIS
sge_qmaster [ -help ]
DESCRIPTION
sge_qmaster controls the overall Sun Grid Engine behavior in a cluster.
OPTIONS -help Prints a listing of all options.
ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES
SGE_ROOT Specifies the location of the Sun Grid Engine standard configuration files.
SGE_CELL If set, specifies the default Sun Grid Engine cell. To address a Sun Grid Engine cell sge_qmaster uses (in the order of
precedence):
The name of the cell specified in the environment variable SGE_CELL, if it is set.
The name of the default cell, i.e. default.
SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
If set, specifies that debug information should be written to stderr. In addition the level of detail in which debug infor-
mation is generated is defined.
SGE_QMASTER_PORT
If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_qmaster(8) is expected to listen for communication requests. Most installations
will use a services map entry for the service "sge_qmaster" instead to define that port.
SGE_EXECD_PORT If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_execd(8) is expected to listen for communication requests. Most installations
will use a services map entry for the service "sge_execd" instead to define that port.
RESTRICTIONS
sge_qmaster is usually started from root on the master or shadow master machines of the cluster (refer to the Sun Grid Engine Installation
and Administration Guide for more information about the configuration of shadow master hosts). If started by a normal user, a master spool
directory must be used to which the user has read/write access. In this case only jobs being submitted by that same user are handled cor-
rectly by the system.
