Hi Peter, <br /><br />&gt; Code looks interesting. This is for Univa Grid Engine?<br /><br />In
 its current state its tailored for the Univa Grid Engine. But the drmaa
 library code that is based on job_info() and wait() should run on all 
grid engines. <br />For the command line based code changes might be 
necessary for the different grid engines. (Currently there is only a 
small bug, because wait() is currently <br />called twice for finished 
jobs: in the repeated polling and then in the final check. The second 
call won't work which causes a fallback to qacct. I will fix this <br />soon.) <br />I
 guess that the output of qstat and qacct will be different. But I think
 this can be configured one just needs a way to get the info which grid 
engine is running. <br /><br />&gt; In terms of the upload jobs, are those not designed to be run as 'local' jobs and not with the 'real user' setting?<br /><br />Sounds
 reasonable, but this is not what is happening on my installation of 
galaxy. Any idea where I could start to find the problem. <br /><br />Best, <br />Matthias
