As it's used only in a parallel startup, the PE start_proc_args would be the more suitable place IMO, but if you run the prolog as root user it must go to the prolog of course (there are security impacts running a shell script as root and it needs to remove many exported variables from the user to avoid being abused). -- Reuti _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@gridengine.org https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
