S-GAE
Simple Graphical Accounting Engine by RDlab
What is s-gae?
s-gae is a web application designed to display accounting information generated by Oracle Grid Engine (formerly SunGrid Engine) or its free forks such as Open Grid Scheduler, Son of Grid Engine, etc. as well as non free forks such as Univa Grid Engine. This gathered data is stored in a database in order to display eye-candy charts grouped by user, queue or full cluster. Moreover, you can use several filter options to customize the results.
Oracle Grid Engine is now a trademark from Oracle, so we won't be using the 'S' from SunGrid anymore in our project. The result of our poll (check it here) is 'Simple'. So, from now on, s-gae stands for Simple Graphical Accounting Engine.
Why s-gae?
At RDlab we have been running an Oracle Grid Engine cluster for several years and, after realising that available solutions did not fit our needs, we decided to develop a good one.
How does it work?
On one hand, s-gae runs in POSIX environments using a standard PHP script executed by a CRON job (or Windows Task Scheduler). The previous named script calls the qacct tool to gather the accounting information and, after being processed and summarized, it is stored in a database. On the other hand, the application has a web frontend that displays this information and lets the user choose among several filters.
