We are in the planning phase for the initial installation of grid engine. The initial
configuration initially is a single cluster with 30 SLES 11 machines. This number may grow to as many as 100 SLES 11 servers. The Oracle N1 Grid Engine 6 Installation Guide, under sge-root Installation Directory, indicates placing the spool directory under sge-root may be avoided for efficiency reasons. Later on, under Spool Directories Under the Root Directory, it states "You do not need to export these directories to other machines. However, exporting the entire sge-root tree and making it write-accessible for the master host and all executable hosts makes administration easier." We are trying to determine where the spool directory should reside based on performance Versus ease of administration. Can somebody explain how ease of administration would be made easier? Thanks in advance. Dale
