when I `grep` through $SGE_ROOT/util I can't find them or anything else to set 
it. Do you need to define these values, as they are different inside the 
cluster? Otherwise you could just delete all local configurations afterwards 
and the global one will be used by:

$ qconf -dconf node01

There is also a Howto how to script commands 
http://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/howto/scripting.html which would only popup an editor 
otherwise (this idea can also be used for `crontab -e`). I made the script more 
generic:

#!/bin/sh
if [ $PARAMETER ]; then
     sleep 1
     sed -i -e "/^$PARAMETER/s|.*|$PARAMETER $VALUE|" $1
else
     export EDITOR=$0
     export PARAMETER=$2
     export VALUE=$3
     qconf -$1
fi

and call it with:

$ sge.conf.sh mconf mailer /usr/sge/cluster/mailer.sh

In your case you would need to introduce another variable for the name of the 
host though.
