h1. Administering Sun Grid Engine

As a Sun Grid Engine administrator, you need to perform the following tasks:
* Add or remove Grid Engine hosts
* Configure hosts and queues
* Manage user access
* Monitor Sun Grid Engine to ensure it is functioning as you need it to *function*
* Perform general maintenance tasks
* Perform special tasks, such as setting up parallel jobs

h2. Administration Tools

To perform these tasks, you can use either of the following mechanisms:
* A graphical user interface, QMON
* A command-line interface, mainly centered on the use of the following commands:
** {{qconf}} --- Add, delete, and modify the current Grid Engine configuration
** {{qhost}} --- View current status of the available Grid Engine hosts, the queues, and the jobs associated with the queues
** {{qalter}} and {{qsub}} --- Submit jobs
** {{qstat}} --- Show the status of Grid Engine jobs and queues
** {{qquota}} --- List each resource quota that is being used at least once or that defines a static limit

For general information about these administration tools, see [Interacting With Sun Grid Engine].
