Correct.

does not exist yet. /sbin/mkhomedir_helper can do exactly that (as it does
if I run prolog manually). I do not need to remove home directory after job
completes: next time the same user's job lands on the same host, there will
be no need to create the directory again.

Is there any configurable process that SGE will start before the job and
that will not try to cd to user's home directory before start? I had hopes
for prolog (global), but apparently is it not a viable candidate.

Thank you,
Ilya.
