Yes: : > accounting Jokes aside, you can either use logrotate or the supplied script: $SGE_ROOT/logchecker.sh Usually I copy it to /usr/sge/default/common/ to make my changes and then use cron jobs on the nodes and the qmaster. qmaster: $ cat /etc/cron.d/gridengine # # Special cron-job to reduce the size of the SGE messages/accounting files. # 5 1 * * 0 sgeadmin /usr/sge/default/common/logchecker.sh -action_on 1 nodes: $ cat /etc/cron.d/gridware 5 1 * * 0 sgeadmin /usr/sge/default/common/logchecker.sh -action_on 2 -execd_spool /var/spool/sge The default in the script itself I set to: UNCONFIGURED=no ACTION_ON=2 ACTIONSIZE=1024 KEEPOLD=3 Note: to read old accouting files in `qacct` on-the-fly you can use: $ qacct -o reuti -f <(zcat /usr/sge/default/common/accounting.1.gz) -- Reuti > > Thanks for any help. > > > > > > -Noel Benitez, Salk iT Dept. > > > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > users@gridengine.org > https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@gridengine.org https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
