Hello all,
like announced in July [1] the default arch of SGE will switch soon from solaris to *. Originally that should happen at 1. October, but I forgot the re-announce it and I'm sure some of you forgot about it too. So the switch is hereby announced for
9. October, 20:00 UTC.
Jobs that are executed after this timestamp and has no arch-option will run on any host (linux or solaris) instead of a solaris-host.
There are 4 ways for you to prepare (sorted): -Make sure that you program runs on linux AND solaris, add "arch=*". -Make sure that you program runs only on linux, add "arch=lx". -Make sure that you program runs only on solaris, add "arch=sol". -Do nothing, pray and see things break. (Somehow I have the feeling most of you will choose 4…, please make me wrong).
Sincerely, DaB.

Hello DaB
As mentioned on TS-1466 [1] (may be the wrong place...?) I do have some issues with my scripts because of the python version (again!) we really should have the

the same version (and patches) as on the solaris boxes... Would that be possible?
Greetings and Thanks DrTrigon

The switch was done around 20:05 UTC successfully. Shortly after we discovered that our SGE-master was down and only the shadow- master (that some sort of last-backup) was working. To fix this we needed ~2 hours and for some minutes the SGE was down completely – so if some jobs of yours didn't start between 20:05 and 21:47 UTC that's my fault, but SGE should fully work now.
Sincerely, DaB.
