Thanks for the alternate opinion Jesse, but I'm already there now, more or
less :-)
This is only a small cluster of 5 compute nodes, and I have a major
hardware shortage that can be solved by taking the former SGE Master box
and repurposing it elsewhere. And in fact once that is done I can probably
just make it the master again anyway.
So I followed the link to Oracle that was given, and ran this on the shadow
boxes :
./inst_sge -sm
It asks me some questions and does some stuff, including starting the
shadow daemon, but it does not put anything in /etc/init.d to start
anything.
So I'm a bit concerned by that.
If I do it manually I get the following - so something is not right here
[root@solexa4 sge]# cp default/common/sgemaster /etc/init.d/
[root@solexa4 sge]# ps -ef | grep -i sge
sgeadmin 19904 1 0 09:06 ? 00:00:03

[root@solexa4 sge]# /etc/init.d/sgemaster stop
shutting down Grid Engine shadowd
[root@solexa4 sge]# /etc/init.d/sgemaster start
sge_qmaster didn't start!
This is not a qmaster host!
Please, check your act_qmaster file!
[root@solexa4 sge]# chkconfig sgemaster on
[root@solexa4 sge]# !ps
ps -ef | grep -i sge
sgeadmin 19904 1 0 09:06 ? 00:00:03
