To work out of the box, the GRAM node will need to be able to run the qsub, qstat, and qdel commands and have a shared home filesystem with the SGE resource. It might be possible to write wrapper scripts with those names that transfer files between the GRAM and SGE node and submit the job there, but we don't currently provide that. We had something like that at one time, but haven't used or tested it in several major versions. Joe
