Changed Features in N1 Grid Engine 6.1 Software

Changed Command Options

For performance reasons, the default behavior of the qstat -u option has changed. Before N1 Grid Engine 6.1, qstat without the -u option printed the jobs of all users. Beginning with N1 Grid Engine 6.1, qstat without the -u prints only the jobs of the user who executed qstat.

To enforce the old qstat behavior, administrators can add -u *to the cluster-wide $SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/sge_qstat file . Users can enforce the previous behavior by adding -u * to the user private file searched at $HOME/.sge_qstat.
