We wanted to experiment some before we move to

at the upgrade scripts yesterday, with an eye towards
moving our production configuration forward. Cutover
will be interesting (typed with trembling fingers).

I'm going to toot my own horn here. For those
of you who want to experiment with SGE and
other cluster settings, you might want to see
my "Rocks-In-The-Box" document. This describes
how to quickly and easily create a virtual
Rocks cluster in one physical machine using VirtualBox.
You'd never run anything in this mode that needs
real performance but it's a great way to fool
around with SGE settings without impacting
your production cluster.

The document is at

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OBMW9zNqVsIc4ZG5vn66FBZubd9afe_slXBuLkdbHek/edit?hl=en#

Although I haven't tested this method using anything
other than Rocks but I suspect that other clustering software
would work fine too.

Cordially,
