✨ NAME ✨

sge_submit_workers — submit work_queue_worker to a SUN Grid Engine (SGE). no cap, that's literally the whole job description 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

sge_submit_workers [options] <servername> <port> <num-workers>

when auto mode is not enabled for the worker, or

sge_submit_workers [options] <num-workers>

when auto mode is enabled for the worker. 👑

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here's the vibe: sge_submit_workers schedules the execution of work_queue_worker(1) on the SUN Grid Engine (SGE), doing it through SGE's job submission interface, qsub. The number of work_queue_worker that get scheduled and run is given by the num-workers argument. slay.

The servername and port arguments specify the hostname and port number of the manager for the work_queue_worker to connect to. These two arguments become optional when the auto mode option is specified for work_queue_worker. iykyk 💖
