Hi all,

It looks like one solution comes from SGE itself (warning, many SGE terms to 
follow).

If you set a host as a Submission Host on the Master Host it can submit jobs 
with the -q option, e.g.:

qsub -q [email protected] job.sh

So, provided there's something that moves job data & files between two servers 
(like sharing home directories) I should just be able to mangle the default 
submission stanza in the GRAM5 SGE LRM Adaptor... I can do that can't I, it's 
not actually documented that I can :P

Regards,

Aaron Hicks
