i want to use, Condor-G2 for job management purposes.

I am getting some problems in understanding the

installation procedure. In this, i want to use SGI

ALTIX as a job submission node & central manager. and

other machines as execution nodes.

Can any body help in that, in what way i should

install Condor..that means..should i need to install

Condor as a root on all the systems(including SGI

ALTIX)...or 

          can i install Condor as a norwal user on

execution nodes..?

      When i should install the

globus-gram-jobmanager-condor package...?

What is your goal with these machines? If what you're looking for is software to manage jobs on these 4 machines, you probably want to set up a regular Condor pool (no Condor-G or Globus).

If these machines are the beginnings of a grid (machines spread across many locations, possibly managed by different scheduling software), then you need to look at Condor-G and Globus.
