[gridengine users] Upgrading issues...

[Jesse Becker]

Well, usually the logs are in:

	$SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/  (accounting/reporting/scheduling)
	$SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/spool/qmaster/  (qmaster)

I had to make a similar path change some time ago, and it was basically
a mater of tracking down every instance of "lx24" and changing it to
"lx26".  "grep -r" is your friend, as are good backups.  Also make sure
to check all of the profile scripts in /etc/, and expect at least a few
of your users to have it hard-coded in their own environments as well.
