This would be fairly manual, something like: - Backup /usr/share/gridengine, /var/spool/gridengine/<cell> - use yum swap/shell to replace the gridengine-* packages with sge-* packages - Move the old /usr/share/gridengine/, /var/spool/gridengine/<cell> files into /usr/share/sge, /var/spool/sge/<cell> -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane [email protected] Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.nwra.com _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
