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.)
