It was fun, It was interesting. I still move on.
It is time to say goodbye. This will be the last entry in this blog. I will be leaving Sun in a week to start a new adventure. I did enjoy working with the Sun Grid team. I got to know lots of passionate and knowledge people. I hope the contacts will not entirely go away even though I switch cities, signed up with the competion, and will most likely be as busy as I was now. 
From what I have seen so fare my new home town, Aachen, will be nearly as nice as Regensburg. Its a bit bigger and right at the border to Netherlands and Belgium.
So, for everyone, who wants to stay in contact, my email address is: sgrell @ gmx.de.

Good bye,

Stephan

A warm welcome to Praha The Sun re-org worked for us very well. I use the chance to send a warm welcome to our new colleagues in Praha.With this new branch in our team will we become really distributed. We do now have the folks from the open source helping us with the project and 3 locations within Sun, where we are doing our development from. It will be interesting to see how fast we can do the integration and which new projects we can now take on. So, again, a warm welcome to our new team members. I hope we will continue as we started last week with the big get to gether. ( Sep 05 2006, 09:55:12 AM CEST ) Permalink

N1GE 6 - Profiling

The Grid Engine software provides a profiling facility to determain where the qmaster and the scheduler spend their time. This has been introduced long before the N1GE 6 software. With the development of N1GE 6 it was greatly improved and its improvement continued over the the different updates we had for the N1GE 6 software. It was used very extensivly to analyse bottlenecks and find missconfigurations in existing installations. Until now, the source code was the only documentation for the output format, which might change with every new udpate and release. Lately a document was added to the source repository to give a brief overview of the output format and the different switches. The document is not complete, though it is a good start.
