Using Accelerator Tools

The following table is an overview of useful tools installed during the Accelerator product installation. Table columns are defined as follows:

File —Lists the tool file names in alphabetical order
Location —Shows where the files are installed; for example: cm is the Cluster Manager machine
Description —Provides a short description or reference

File	Location	Description
clusterdownload	cm, agent, emake	Downloads files to the host. See Using Cluster Manager Administration Tools .
clusterexec	cm, agent, emake	Runs commands on agent hosts. See Using Cluster Manager Administration Tools .
clusterupload	cm, agent, emake	Uploads files to agent hosts. See Using Cluster Manager Administration Tools .
cmtool	cm, agent, emake	Command-Line tool for Cluster Manager.
ecagent_restart /etc/init.d/ecagent restart	agent	Restarts the agent service or daemon. See Using ecagent Tools .
ecagent_start /etc/init.d/ecagent start	agent	Starts the agent service or daemon. See Using ecagent Tools .
ecagent_stop /etc/init.d/ecagent stop	agent	Stops the agent service or daemon. See Using ecagent Tools .
ecbreakpoint	agent	Debugging tool for problematic job steps and stalled processes during the build.
eccc	cm, agent, emake	A wrapper for SunForte Compiler Suite and Sun ONE Studio/Sun Workshop if you are experiencing excessive serialization in your build.
ecconfig	agent	Reconfigures agents. See Using ecconfig .
ecinstconf	cm, agent	Configures Cluster Manager and agent settings. See Using ecinstconf .
eclock	cm, emake	Serializes multiple runnings of a program. For example, it may not be safe to run two copies of a particular application to run simultaneously on a single computer, even if it is run by different users. Use eclock (typically in makefiles) to cause various invocations of that program to wait for each other. See Using eclock .
emake	cm, agent, emake	Accelerator’s eMake component. For details about eMake, see eMake Command-Line Options, Variables, and Configuration File.
