Hi

I have used Grid engine before but that was on a remote cluster. I am trying to 
find a way to control batch submission of jobs with a queuing system for 
deletion and control etc.
I have a multicore machine (8 CPU cores) and have legacy single threaded 
application. Is it possible to configure the multicore machine as a node and 
then have a single queue where jobs are submitted to run on a single core only? 
In other words the node will run 8 jobs at a time as separate instances? I have 
read through some of the documentation pages and there seem to be the required 
options to limit (request) the number of cores per job, but I am not clear if 
the scheduler will use the rest of the node? I will have a separate master node 
from which the jobs will be submitted.

Thank you in advance for any pointers to which parts of the documentation to 
read.

All the best

Trevor
