Hi Grid folks.
As per my earlier post, I am a newbie to OGE, but not to schedulers in general.
To keep things clear, what is the official name for this software? It is Open Grid Engine (OGE), or
Open Grid Scheduler (OGS)?
I downloaded the tar ball executable and when I run "./start_gui_installer", it opens up with a SUN Microsystem Banner.
I realize that the software is a by-product of the old Sun Grid Engine, but since this software branch is now officially on
it's own with a new name (Grid Engine) can the banner be removed or fixed with the correct name?
From a new user point of view, all these different names for the same software product is confusing and having one
concrete name will go a long way in keeping things straight.
What say you?
P.S. Great community support by the way - amazing how helpful folks are here.
Joseph
