Installing the Sun Grid Engine Software Interactively

This section covers the interactive installation of the Sun Grid Engine software and consists of the following topics:

Note
  • The instructions in this section assume that you are installing the software on a computer running the Solaris TM Operating System. Any difference in functionality created by other operating system architecture that the Grid Engine software runs on is documented in files starting with the string arc_depend in the $SGE_ROOT/doc directory. The remainder of the file name indicates the operating system architectures to which the comments in the files apply, as in the arc_depend_irix.asc file.
  • Also note that there are several prerequisites that you must satisfy for Windows systems before you can install Grid Engine. See Microsoft Services For UNIX for further details.
  • This section does not cover the upgrade process or the installation of the Accounting and Reporting Module, ARCo. For information about upgrading, see Upgrading From a Previous Release of Grid Engine Software. For information about installing ARCo, see Installing the Accounting and Reporting Console.

Interactive Installation Overview

Note
The instructions in this section are for a new Grid Engine system only. For instructions on how to install a new system with additional security protection, see Installing the Increased Security Features. For instructions on how to upgrade an existing installation of an earlier version of the Grid Engine software, see Upgrading From a Previous Release of Grid Engine Software.

Full installation includes the following tasks:

  • Running an installation script on the master host and on every execution host in the Grid Engine system
  • Registering information about administration hosts and submit hosts
