Hi, I am using SGE for some years now. I install my nodes through rocks cluster with images. However, since Rocks is based on a old version of CentOS, which is older than the last fedora or RedHat, we think about moving to a debian base cluster, because we don't need certified stuff (eg. for IB or nvidia or for some other software/reason).
I will configure my new nodes using the couple FAI/salt. I have already many salt formulas/recipes. I would like to manage my future cluster, and obviously my job scheduler, SGE, with salt. Concerning SGE, I think we will move to the last version of SoGE. I know that many of you already did it with puppet. I saw this repository on github: https://github.com/AAFC-MBB/sge-puppet.git I take a look into this puppet formula, and it seems that there is a lot to configure, not only SGE (ssh keys, iptables, nfs...). BTW, it is doing an update on the exec node, which is *not wanted* here. On many configuration file, on my master, I have this warning: ``` # Version: 2011.11p1 # # DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE MANUALLY! # ``` Indeed, I have OGS/GE 2011.11p1, but how SGE store is configuration datas ? Everything is in configuration files ? If so, why this warning ? Any idea or best practice to look at ? Is $SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL is the only thing that needs to be checked with some other system stuffs (network, firewall...) ? I would be happy if any of you already did this work and share it (even with another configuration management tool, like puppet above). Best regards Remy
