Cluster Queues

The installation procedure creates a default cluster queue structure, which is suitable for getting acquainted with the system. The default queue can be removed after installation.

No matter what directory is used for the installation of the software, the administrator can change most settings that were created by the installation procedure. This change can be made while the system is running.

Consider the following when determining a queue structure:

• Whether you need cluster queues for sequential, interactive, parallel, and other job types

• Which queue instances to put on which execution hosts

• How many job slots are needed in each queue

For more detailed information on administering cluster queues, see Configuring Queues in Sun N1 Grid Engine 6.1 Administration Guide.
