How to install an execution host

Easy as 1,2,3. Just mount or copy /SGE from the master, add the node to the list of execution hosts as described under SGEAdmin, set the environment and start the daemon

$SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common/sgeexecd

Unlike in LSF there is only one daemon sge_execd and the load sensor(s), responsible for the job execution is the sge_shepherd which is started for each single job.
