Description Bernd Gloss 2010-02-17 20:15:44 UTC
I am not completely sure, whether this is a bug. I haven't had time to track it down.

Description of problem:
Following the instructions in /usr/share/doc/gridengine-6.2u3/README tells me to a) install the qmaster, b) to copy  default/common/act_master + bootstrap to the systems I want to make execution daemons.

It seems that this is not sufficient. When running at a destination system 
#$ cd $SGE_ROOT
#$ ./install_execd

a error message comes after 2 or three setup pages stating that settings.sh is missing at line 1077 and is stopping.

Fix:
I copied the settings.sh and settins.csh as well, which seems to be okay, since I have the same layout of the /usr tree on all machines.

Best,
Bernd

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2010-02-18 15:34:52 UTC
How about this for updated instructions:

 3) Make sure the files act_qmaster, bootstrap, and settings.*sh from the
    directory /usr/share/gridengine/default/common/ are shared to all clients.
    If you don't run with a shadow master configuration you can simply copy
    these files to the other machines.

If you change the default SGE_ROOT or SGE_CELL values, you will need to
edit /etc/sysconfig/gridengine and change them there as well for the startup
scripts to work.

- On execution hosts install gridengine-execd, then:

  cd /usr/share/gridengine
  ./install_execd

OR if you have a default install, you may be able to just do:

  chkconfig sge_execd on
  service sge_execd start
