This code is UCL-RITS lightly patched fork of Mark Olessen's flex-grid and contains local patches and config. Anyone else who wants to use it is welcome to try and disentangle the UCL specific bits from the more generally useful bits.
This code is provided as a courtesy to other users with absolutely no guarantees! Usage questions should be posted to the users@gridengine.org mailing list -- please do not email either UCL or the original author directly.
The github project page contains extra details. Some additional documentation (eg, usage and frequently asked questions about this software) can also be found on the gridengine wiki (links lead to suitable copies on the Wayback Machine, as gridengine.info seems defunct):

Univa have license management baked into their propreitary grid engine fork so this code probably isn't useful if you use that.
The supplementary program qloadsensor illustrates one possibility of integrating the qlicserver program.
The supplementary program qlic is a simple means of parsing the output file for a quick overview. The programm lacct, which extracts the output from the SGE accounting file, is still too ugly to be released.
The supplementary program filter-accounting is a simple means of extracting portions of the GridEngine accounting(5) file according to the job end_time.
