Hi David, If you really do want to try out Univa Grid Engine you can get it here by filling in the form: http://www.univa.com/resources/univa-grid-engine-trial.php <http://www.univa.com/resources/univa-grid-engine-trial.php>
That will email you a link that you can use. The only limitation on this version is that it is 50 core limited in the trial. The qmaster counts the cores. Sorry to hear no one got back to you about your request for UGE. Where did you send your request? Regards, Bill. > On Jan 18, 2019, at 11:09 AM, David Triimboli <trimb...@cshl.edu> wrote: > > Hi, all. I've got a twenty-four-node cluster running versions of CentOS 5 and > Sun Grid Engine.
