SGE Platform Support (as of version 8.1.3)
==========================================

Please report portability problems, preferably with fixes, or success
on platforms not listed.  This is a summary of current knowledge.

GNU/Linux
---------

* x86_64/amd64:  Widely in production.  Should work at least on any
  currently-supported distribution (e.g. Debian stable, RHEL 5 or
  later).  Binary packages are available for RHEL 5 and 6.

* Other GNU/Linux architectures:  x86 known to work, others should
  work.  Problems are most likely due to naming conventions for
  architectures (uname -m) and Java locations.

Source packaging is available for Debian (and derivatives) and RHEL
but probably needs small adjustment for SuSE.  The included dpkg
packaging is a much better bet than the current official Debian
packaging (which is being worked on); it doesn't provide GUI installer
or Hadoop support.  See README.packages.

Some support libraries are available in
<http://arc.liv.ac.uk/downloads/SGE/support/>.

Solaris
-------

* Known to build on Solaris 10 with GCC or the system compiler and
  should do on 11.  Requires add-on library support for openssl,
  Berkeley DB, and hwloc, e.g. from <http://www.opencsw.org/>.

MS Windows
----------

* Interix/SUA/SFU:  See README.windows.  Supposed to work with Server
  2003 Release 2, Server 2008, Vista Enterprise, and Vista Ultimate
  using Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications; also for Server 2003,
  XP Professional with at least Service Pack 1, Windows 2000 Server
  with at least Service Pack 3, or Windows 2000 Professional with at
  least Service Pack 3 using Services for UNIX.  qmaster, qmon, DRMAA,
  and qsh not supported.

* Cygwin:  Builds, and clients work, but there are problems with
  daemons (tested on Windows 7), apparently related to threading.

FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly, OpenBSD
-----------------------------------

Works on recent NetBSD.  Support present for FreeBSD and OpenBSD, with
available patches imported.  Binding/topology support via hwloc may
not work.

Darwin (Apple Mac OS X)
-----------------------

Support present for recent versions (10.4+?) on x86 and Power.

AIX
---

Support present for version 5.1 and above.

HP-UX
-----

Support present for version 11, 32- or 64-bit.

Tru64
-----

Support present for Tru64 5.  Not known to be tested, and expected to
be removed with final HP support for Tru64 finishing.

Irix
----

Support present for Irix 6.5.  Not known to be tested, and expected to
be removed with final SGI support for Irix finishing.

Others
------

Support for obsolete NEC SX, ("classic") Cray, and vestigial bits for
other systems has been removed, but could conceivably be revived from
the repository.  (SX had possibly-interesting resource management
features.)
