Hi there, I have a prototpye of an x86_64 CentOS 6.4 machine and have come to see what would be needed to go with the SGE 8.1.X series RPMS, rather than the old 6u2.5 series from back in the Sun days.
I grab the RPMS from http://arc.liv.ac.uk/downloads/SGE/releases/8.1.3 I check out the client's installation footprint -----8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------- # yum localinstall gridengine-execd-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm gridengine-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm ... Installing: gridengine x86_64 8.1.3-1.el6 /gridengine-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64 49 M gridengine-execd x86_64 8.1.3-1.el6 /gridengine-execd-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64 3.9 M Installing for dependencies: hwloc x86_64 1.5-1.el6 base 1.4 M ... -----8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------- All seems good. Now I come to try the qmaster -----8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------- # yum localinstall gridengine-qmaster-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm gridengine-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64.rpm ... Installing: gridengine x86_64 8.1.3-1.el6 /gridengine-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64 49 M gridengine-qmaster x86_64 8.1.3-1.el6 /gridengine-qmaster-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64 4.1 M Installing for dependencies: flac x86_64 1.2.1-6.1.el6 base 243 k hwloc x86_64 1.5-1.el6 base 1.4 M java-1.6.0-openjdk x86_64 1:1.6.0.0-1.61.1.11.11.el6_4 updates 25 M jline noarch 0.9.94-0.8.el6 base 86 k libasyncns x86_64 0.8-1.1.el6 base 24 k libogg x86_64 2:1.1.4-2.1.el6 base 21 k libsndfile x86_64 1.0.20-5.el6 base 233 k libvorbis x86_64 1:1.2.3-4.el6_2.1 base 168 k perl-XML-Simple noarch 2.18-6.el6 base 72 k pulseaudio-libs x86_64 0.9.21-14.el6_3 base 462 k rhino noarch 1.7-0.7.r2.2.el6 base 778 k tzdata-java noarch 2013b-1.el6 updates 156 k ... -----8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------------8<-------- FLAC ? Ogg ? PulseAudio ? So then I read the way the dependencies have developed and it seems that it's down to the requirement for Java, as satisfied in the CentOS 6.4 distro. --> Processing Dependency: java >= 1.6.0 for package: gridengine-qmaster-8.1.3-1.el6.x86_64 ... --> Processing Dependency: libpulse.so.0(PULSE_0)(64bit) for package: 1:java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.61.1.11.11.el6_4.x86_64 and so on? However, does an SGE 8 qmaster actually NEED Java. or is it some functionality that could be split out from the core ? Kevin M.
