NAME

       access_list - Grid Engine access list file format

DESCRIPTION

       Access  lists are used in Grid Engine to define access permissions of users to queues (see
       queue_conf(5)), parallel environments (see sge_pe(5)), execution hosts (see host_conf(5)),
       or  the whole cluster ( see sge_conf(5)).  A list of currently configured access lists can
       be displayed via the qconf(1) -sul option. The contents of each access list can shown  via
       the  -su  switch.  The output follows the access_list format description. New access lists
       can be created and existing ones can be modified via the -au and -du options to qconf(1).

       Departments are a special form of  access  list  that  additionally  allow  assignment  of
       functional shares and override tickets.

       Note,  Grid  Engine  allows  backslashes  (\)  be  used  to escape newline characters. The
       backslash and the newline are replaced with a space character before any interpretation.

FORMAT

       The following list of access_list parameters specifies the access_list content:

   name
       The name of the access list in the format for userset_name in sge_types(5).

   type
       The type of the access list, currently one of ACL, or DEPT or a  combination of both in  a
       comma-separated  list.  Depending  on  this  parameter,  the access list can be used as an
       access list only, or as a department.

   oticket
       The number of override tickets currently assigned to the department.

   fshare
       The current functional share of the department.

   entries
       A comma-separated list of those UNIX  users  (see  user_name  in  sge_types(5))  or  those
       primary  UNIX groups that are assigned to the access list or the department. Only a user's
       primary UNIX group is used; secondary groups are ignored. Only symbolic names are allowed.
       A  group  is  differentiated from a user name by prefixing the group name with a '@' sign.
       Pure access lists allow listing any user or group in any access list.

       When using departments, each user or group may only be listed in one department, in  order
       to  ensure  a  unique  assignment  of  jobs  to  departments.  If the defaultdepartment is
       defined, it is assigned to jobs whose users do not match with any of the users  or  groups
       listed under entries.
