qconf - Grid Engine Queue Configuration
Qconf allows the system administrator to add, delete, and
modify the current Grid Engine configuration, including queue management,
host management, complex management and user management. Qconf also
allows you to examine the current queue configuration for existing
queues.
Qconf allows the use of the backslash, '\', character at
the end of a line to indicate that the next line is a continuation of the
current line. When displaying settings, such as the output of one of the
-s* options, qconf will break up long lines (lines
greater than 80 characters) into smaller lines using backslash line
continuation where possible. Lines will only be broken up at commas or
whitespace. This feature can be disabled by setting the SGE_SINGLE_LINE
environment variable.
Unless denoted otherwise, the following options and the
corresponding operations are available to all users with a valid
account.
- -Aattr
obj_spec fname obj_instance,...
- <add to object attributes>
Similar to -aattr (see below) but takes specifications for the object
attributes to be enhanced from file named fname. As opposed to
-aattr, multiple attributes can be enhanced. Their specification
has to be listed in fname following the file format of the
corresponding object (see queue_conf(5) for the queue, for
example).
Requires root or manager privileges.
- -Acal
fname <add calendar>
- Adds a new calendar definition to the Grid Engine environment. Calendars

the file format of the corresponding object (see queue_conf(5) for
the queue, for example).
Requires root/manager privileges.
- -aattr
obj_spec attr_name val
obj_instance,...
- <add to object attributes>
Allows adding specifications to a single configuration list attribute in
multiple instances of an object with a single command. Currently supported
object types are queues, hosts, host groups, parallel environments,
resource quota sets, users, projects, calendars, and checkpointing
interface configurations, specified respectively as queue,
exechost, hostgroup, pe, resource_quota,
user, project, calender, userset, or
ckpt in obj_spec. For the obj_spec queue the
obj_instance can be a cluster queue name, a queue domain name or a
queue instance name. Find more information concerning different queue
names in sge_types(5). Depending on the type of the
obj_instance, this adds to the cluster queues attribute sublist the
cluster queue's implicit default configuration value or the queue domain
configuration value or queue instance configuration value. The queue
load_thresholds parameter is an example of a list attribute. With
the -aattr option, entries can be added to such lists, while they
can be deleted with -dattr, modified with -mattr, and
replaced with -rattr.
For the obj_spec rqs the obj_instance is a unique
identifier for a specific rule. The identifier consists of a rule-set name
and either the number of the rule in the list, or the name of the rule,
separated by a "/".
The name of the configuration attribute to be enhanced is specified with
attr_name followed by val as a name=value
pair. The space-separated list of object instances (e.g., the list of
queues) to which the changes have to be applied are specified at the end
of the command.
The following restriction applies: For the exechost object the
load_values attribute cannot be modified (see host_conf(5)).
Requires root or manager privileges.
- -acal
calendar_name <add calendar>
- Adds a new calendar definition to the Grid Engine environment. Calendars
are used in Grid Engine for defining availability and unavailability
schedules of queues. The format of a calendar definition is described in
calendar_conf(5).
With the calendar name given in the option argument,
qconf will open a temporary file and start up the text editor
indicated by the environment variable EDITOR (default vi(1) if
EDITOR is not set). After entering the calendar definition and closing
the editor the new calendar is checked and registered with
sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
- -ackpt
ckpt_name <add checkpointing environment>
- Adds a checkpointing environment under the name ckpt_name to the
list of checkpointing environments maintained by Grid Engine and to be
usable to submit checkpointing jobs (see checkpoint(5) for details
on the format of a checkpointing environment definition). Qconf
retrieves a default checkpointing environment configuration and executes
vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is set) to
allow you to customize the checkpointing environment configuration. Upon
exit from the editor, the checkpointing environment is registered with
sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
- -aconf
host,... <add configuration>
- Successively adds configurations (see sge_conf(5)) For the hosts in
the comma-separated host list. For each host, an editor ($EDITOR, if
defined, or vi(1)) is invoked and the configuration for the host
can be entered. The configuration is registered with sge_qmaster(8)
after saving the file and quitting the editor.
Requires root or manager privileges.
- -ae
[host_template] <add execution host>
- Adds a host to the list of Grid Engine execution hosts. If a queue is
configured on a host this host is automatically added to the Grid Engine
execution host list. Adding execution hosts explicitly offers the
advantage to be able to specify parameters like load scale values with the
registration of the execution host. However, these parameters can be
modified (from their defaults) at any later time via the -me option
described below.
If the host_template argument is present, qconf retrieves the
configuration of the specified execution host from sge_qmaster(8)
or a generic template otherwise. The template is then stored in a file and
qconf executes vi(1) (or the editor indicated by $EDITOR if
the EDITOR environment variable is set) to change the entries in the file.
The format of the execution host specification is described in
host_conf(5). When the changes are saved in the editor and the
editor is quit the new execution host is registered with
sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
- -ah
hostname,... <add administrative host>
- Adds hosts hostname to the Grid Engine trusted host list (a host
must be in this list to execute administrative Grid Engine commands, the
sole exception to this being the execution of qconf on the
sge_qmaster(8) node). The default Grid Engine installation
procedures usually add all designated execution hosts (see the -ae
option above) to the Grid Engine trusted host list automatically. Requires
root or manager privileges.
- -ahgrp
group <add host group configuration>
- Adds a new host group with the name specified in group. This
command invokes an editor (either vi(1) or the editor indicated by
the EDITOR environment variable). The new host group entry is registered
after changing the entry and exiting the editor. Requires root or manager
privileges.
- -arqs
[rqs_name] <add new RQS>
- Adds one or more Resource Quota Set (RQS) description under the
names rqs_name to the list of RQSs maintained by Grid Engine. (See
sge_resource_quota(5) for details on the format of an RQS
definition.) Qconf retrieves a default RQS configuration and
executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR environment variable is
set) to allow you to customize the RQS configuration. Upon exit from the
editor, the RQS is registered with sge_qmaster(8). Requires root or
manager privileges.
- -am
user,... <add managers>
- Adds the indicated users to the Grid Engine manager list. Requires root or
manager privileges.
Managers have full access to the Grid Engine configuration and operational
features. Superusers on administration hosts have manager privileges by
default.
- -ao
user,... <add operators>
- Adds the indicated users to the Grid Engine operator list. Requires root
or manager privileges.
Operators have the same privileges as managers except that they cannot make
configuration changes.
- -ap
pe_name <add new PE>
- Adds a Parallel Environment (PE) description under the name
pe_name to the list of PEs maintained by Grid Engine and to be
usable to submit parallel jobs (see sge_pe(5) for details on the
format of a PE definition). Qconf retrieves a default PE
configuration and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR
environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the PE
configuration. Upon exit from the editor, the PE is registered with
sge_qmaster(8). Requires root/manager privileges.
- -at thread_name
<activates thread in master>
- Activates an additional thread in the master process. thread_name
can be either "scheduler" or "jvm". The corresponding
thread is only started when it is not already running. There may be only
one scheduler and only one JVM thread in the master process at the same
time.
- -aprj <add new
project>
- Adds a project description to the list of registered projects (see
project(5)). Qconf retrieves a template project
configuration and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR
environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the new project.
Upon exit from the editor, the template is registered with
sge_qmaster(8). Requires root or manager privileges.
- -aq
[queue_name] <add new queue>
- Qconf retrieves the default queue configuration (see
queue_conf(5)) and executes vi(1) (or $EDITOR if the EDITOR
environment variable is set) to allow you to customize the queue
configuration. Upon exit from the editor, the queue is registered with
sge_qmaster(8). A minimal configuration requires only that the
queue name and queue hostlist be set. Requires root or manager
privileges.
- -as
hostname,... <add submit hosts>
- Add hosts hostname to the list of hosts allowed to submit Grid
Engine jobs and control their behavior only. Requires root or manager
privileges.

node_path is the name of the new node. The node is initialized to the
number of specified shares. Requires root or manager privileges.
- -astree <add
share tree>
- Adds the definition of a share tree to the system (see
share_tree(5)). A template share tree is retrieved and an editor
(either vi(1) or the editor indicated by $EDITOR) is invoked for

- Note: The -ks switch is deprecated and may be removed in
future release. Please use the -kt switch instead.
Used to shutdown Grid Engine components (daemons). In the form -km
sge_qmaster(8) is forced to terminate in a controlled fashion. In
the same way the -ks switch causes termination of the scheduler
thread. Shutdown of running sge_execd(8) processes currently
registered is initiated by the -ke option. If -kej is
specified instead, all jobs running on the execution hosts are aborted
prior to termination of the corresponding sge_execd(8). The
comma-separated host list specifies the execution hosts to be addressed by
the -ke and -kej option. If the keyword all is
specified instead of a host list, all running sge_execd(8)

attributes are described in queue_conf(5).
This operation only works on a single queue instance or domain. It cannot be
used on a cluster queue. In the case where the obj_spec is
"queue@@hostgroup", the attribute values defined in
attr_nm which are set for the indicated hostgroup are deleted, but
not those which are set for the hosts contained by that hostgroup. If the
attr_nm is '*', all attribute values set for the given queue
instance or domain are deleted.
The main difference between -dattr and -purge is that
-dattr removes a value from a single list attribute, whereas
-purge removes one or more overriding attribute settings from a
cluster queue configuration. With -purge, the entire attribute is
deleted for the given queue instance or queue domain.

obj_spec attr_name val <show object
list>
- Shows a list of all configuration objects for which val matches at
least one configuration value of the attributes whose name matches
attr_name.
obj_spec can be "queue" or
"queue_domain" or "queue_instance" or
"exechost". Note: When "queue_domain" or
"queue_instance" is specified as obj_spec, matching is
only done with the attribute overridings concerning the host group or
the execution host. In this case queue domain names resp. queue
instances are returned.
attr_name can be any of the configuration file keywords
listed in queue_conf(5) or host_conf(5). Also wildcards
can be used to match multiple attributes.
val can be an arbitrary string or a wildcard
expression.
- -sp
pe_name <show PE configuration>
- Show the definition of the parallel environment (PE) specified by
the argument.
- -spl <show
PE-list>

project(5)).
- -sprjl <show
project list>
- Shows the list of all currently defined projects.
- -sq

list>
- Show a list of all currently defined cluster queues.
- -ss <show submit
hosts>
- Displays the Grid Engine submit host list.
- -ssconf <show
scheduler configuration>
- Displays the current scheduler configuration in the format explained in
sched_conf(5).
- -sstnode
node_path,... <show share tree node>
- Shows the name and shares of the specified share tree node(s) (see
share_tree(5)). The node_path is a hierarchical path
([/]node_name[{/|.}node_name...])
specifying the location of a node in the share tree.
- -sstree <show
share tree>
- Shows the definition of the share tree (see share_tree(5)). A
different view is provided by -bonsai.
- -sst <show
formatted share tree>
- Shows the definition of the share tree in a tree view (see
share_tree(5)).
- -sss <show
scheduler status>
- Currently displays the host on which the Grid Engine scheduler is active
or an error message if no scheduler is running.
- -su
acl_name <show user ACL>
- Displays a Grid Engine user access list (ACL).
- -sul <show user
lists>
- Displays a list of names of all currently defined Grid Engine user access
lists (ACLs).
- -suser
user,... <show user>
- Shows the definition of the specified user(s) (see user(5)).
- -suserl <show
users>
- Shows the list of all currently defined users.
- -tsm <trigger
scheduler monitoring>
- The Grid Engine scheduler is forced by this option to print trace messages
of its next scheduling run to the file
<sge_root>/<cell>/common/schedd_runlog. The messages
indicate the reasons for jobs and queues not being selected in that run.
Requires root or manager privileges.
Note, that the reasons for job requirements being invalid with
respect to resource availability of queues are displayed using the
format as described for the qstat(1) -F option (see
description of Full Format in section OUTPUT FORMATS of
the qstat(1) manual page.
- SGE_ROOT
- Specifies the location of the Grid Engine standard configuration
files.
- SGE_CELL
- If set, specifies the default Grid Engine cell. To address a Grid Engine
cell qconf uses (in the order of precedence):
The name of the cell specified in the environment
variable SGE_CELL, if it is set.
The name of the default cell, i.e. default.
- SGE_DEBUG_LEVEL
- If set, specifies that debug information should be written to stderr. In
addition the level of detail in which debug information is generated is
defined.
- SGE_QMASTER_PORT
- If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_qmaster(8) is expected
to listen for communication requests. Most installations will use a
services map entry instead to define that port.
- SGE_EXECD_PORT
- If set, specifies the tcp port on which sge_execd(8) is expected to
listen for communication requests. Most installations will use a services
map entry instead to define that port.
- SGE_SINGLE_LINE
- If set, indicates that long lines should not be broken up using
backslashes. This setting is useful for scripts which expect one entry per
line.
Modifications to a queue configuration do not affect an active
queue, taking effect on next invocation of the queue (i.e., the next
job).
