Hello all,

like announced in July [1] the default arch of SGE will switch soon from 
solaris to *. Originally that should happen at 1. October, but I forgot 
the re-announce it and I'm sure some of you forgot about it too. So the switch 
is hereby announced for 

9. October, 20:00 UTC.

Jobs that are executed after this timestamp and has no arch-option will run on 
any host (linux or solaris) instead of a solaris-host.

There are 4 ways for you to prepare (sorted):
-Make sure that you program runs on linux AND solaris, add "arch=*".
-Make sure that you program runs only on linux, add "arch=lx".
-Make sure that you program runs only on solaris, add "arch=sol".
-Do nothing, pray and see things break.
(Somehow I have the feeling most of you will choose 4…, please make me wrong).

Sincerely,
DaB.
