Changing N1GE Settings

The N1GE settings affect the way N1GE is installed onto the master, compute and access hosts. The N1GE administrator must determine the various parameter values suited to their local Grid environment.

Factors you should determine include the local namespace for users, TCP services, file directory structure, operating system, and so forth. The values have default options which are suitable for a generic installation. You should be familiar with the N1GE 6 product before changing any of these values. If you wish to change more advanced configuration settings, please see Chapter 3, Using the Setup configuration file.

Once you deploy the master host, you cannot edit these values which remain in effect for all further deployments of compute and access hosts. You can only edit the values again if you uninstall the master host. The following section describes each setting

SGE Root -- This setting is the root directory under which the N1GE files will be installed. Note that the files will be installed on all hosts in this directory.

SGE Cell -- This settings is the N1GE cell name used for the deployment.

Qmaster TCP Port -- This setting is the TCP port to use for the N1GE qmaster daemon.

Execd TCP Port -- This setting is the TCP port to use for the N1GE execd daemon.

Admin Username -- This setting is the username of the N1GE admin user.

Admin UID -- This setting is the UID of the N1GE admin user.

Grid Engine Version -- This parameter indicates the version of N1 Grid Engine that will be deployed on the compute and access hosts.
