This is correct. You can install SGE with any account, if you only want to use it as a single user and don't care about parallel jobs. But for an installation in a cluster accessed by many users it must be installed as root, as only root may switch to any user. The sgeadmin account (or however you calll it), is just one user who may make changes to the settings in SGE after installation, though you can add further users as "managers" (`qconf -am ...`) too. Sometimes the logfiles are set to be read by the sgeadmin account only to protect personal information and some files of the installation belong to this account. Besides this, the sgeadmin account is nothing special. -- Reuti PS: for me it looks this way: bertel:/usr # ls -lhd sge drwxr-xr-x 19 sgeadmin gridware 4.0K 2014-04-24 14:24 sge > > Kind Regards > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > users@gridengine.org > https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@gridengine.org https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
