The HTML documentation in the www directory is in need of attention.

The "reporting" component depends on the proprietary Sun Java Web
Console, so it isn't supported by this project, and is probably of
less use than the "dbwriter" component for stashing the reporting data
into a database.  The reporting component is retained with a view
possibly to replacing it, or the proprietary part, with a free
framework.  Some tools providing a graphical interface to accounting
data are listed at http://gridengine.sourceforge.io/SGE/tools.html but
obviously don't provide a direct replacement.  Univa appear to use dbwriter
with Pentaho <http://www.pentaho.com/>.  Help welcome in
investigating/producing and alternative.

Building dbwriter requires a copy of the jaxb stuff from
http://jaxb.java.net/ (in addition to a recent Java installation and
ant).  To override the value set in source/build.properties, use an
entry in source/build_private.properties of the form
  jaxb.home=<directory>
where <directory> is the name of the directory containing
lib/jaxb-api.jar.  Then
  cd source;  ./build.sh dist
will build dbwriter/dbwriter.tar.gz.

Note that support for MySQL has been removed since the licence of the
Java connector necessary to interface with it is the GNU GPL, with
which the ARCo/dbwriter licence (SISSL) isn't compatible.
