SGE_QMASTER(8)        Grid Engine Administrative Commands       SGE_QMASTER(8)



[1mNAME[0m
       sge_qmaster - Grid Engine master control daemon

[1mSYNOPSIS[0m
       [1msge_qmaster [22m[ [1m-help [22m]

[1mDESCRIPTION[0m
       [4msge_qmaster[24m controls the overall Grid Engine behavior in a cluster. For
       the  purpose   of   scheduling   jobs   [4msge_qmaster[24m   cooperates   with
       [4msge_schedd[24m(8).

[1mOPTIONS[0m
       [1m-help  [22mPrints  a listing of all options.

[1mENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES[0m
       [1mSGE_ROOT       [22mSpecifies  the location of the Grid Engine standard con-
                      figuration files.

       [1mSGE_CELL       [22mIf set, specifies  the  default  Grid  Engine  cell.  To
                      address  a  Grid  Engine  cell  [4msge_qmaster[24m uses (in the
                      order of precedence):

                             The name of the cell specified in the environment
                             variable SGE_CELL, if it is set.

                             The name of the default cell, i.e. [1mdefault[22m.


       [1mSGE_DEBUG_LEVEL[0m
                      If set, specifies that debug information should be writ-
                      ten to stderr. In addition the level of detail in  which
                      debug information is generated is defined.

       [1mSGE_QMASTER_PORT[0m
                      If  set,  specifies the tcp port on which [4msge_qmaster[24m(8)
                      is expected to listen for communication requests.   Most
                      installations will use a services map entry for the ser-
                      vice "sge_qmaster" instead to define that port.

       [1mSGE_EXECD_PORT [22mIf set, specifies the tcp port on which [4msge_execd[24m(8)  is
                      expected  to  listen  for  communication requests.  Most
                      installations will use a services map entry for the ser-
                      vice "sge_execd" instead to define that port.

[1mRESTRICTIONS[0m
       [4msge_qmaster[24m is usually started from root on the master or shadow master
       machines of the cluster (refer to  the  [4mGrid[24m  [4mEngine[24m  [4mInstallation[24m  [4mand[0m
       [4mAdministration[24m  [4mGuide[24m  for  more information about the configuration of
       shadow master hosts).  If started by a  normal  user,  a  master  spool
       directory must be used to which the user has read/write access. In this
       case only jobs being submitted by that same user are handled  correctly
       by the system.
