Differences SGE vs N1
The sentence "Sun also sells a commercial product based on SGE, also known as N1 Grid Engine (N1GE)." contains one "also" too many, I think, and I don't really understand the meaning.
The page linked to in the external links section
- Sun N1 Grid Engine - Official page for the commercial version
does not contain the word N1.
So: How does N1 relate to SGE? A little investigation on Sun's web site. I went to http://www.sun.com/software/gridware/ and searched for N1. Up came a link called "Sun N1 Grid Engine 6.1", which led back to the same page. It seems that they have stopped using the name N1, at least for this product. They have something called "Sun N1 Service Provisioning System".
I have Sun Grid Engine 6.1 update 3. When I start the tool qmon, it brings up a splash screen with the name "N1 (tm) Grid Engine". --HelgeStenstrom (talk) 08:25, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
