[Bioclusters] FYI: GridEngine for new users -- one step install

[Ron Chen]

Hello,

Many people want to try batch schedulers, but don't
have much experience with the install process...

SuSE has made available an RPM for SGE on Linux. All
you need is to download the RPM, and do a normal rpm
install (rpm -i).

NO need to run any install script -- it is for all
newbies with 0% of batch system experience.

(note: it modifies the init script, and you may need
to reboot IF you don't want to start the SGE daemons
manually)

You can download the RPM from --
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/nashif/misc/

You can play with a 1 host SGE cluster in less than
5 minutes, and try to submit as many jobs as you want
to see when SGE breaks! (Just for fun 8-) )


-Ron
