[HTCondor-users] Job access to own Job and Machine ClassAds?



Good morning/afternoon/...,

we're facing a problem with GPU-bound jobs, and while investigating the best
approach to use a multi-GPU machine (I couldn't find an equivalent to CPU
sharing - as that is done by the kernel), I was wondering

- Does a job running in its slot have a means to read its own Job ClassAd,
and the Machine ClassAd of the slot it's running in? 
- If the answer is yes, how to do it without Python bindings?

(The background is: If the OSG gets access to some of our GPUs, how do we
and how do the users make sure there are no collisions? If there's already
a canonical way to assign and use GPUs known to, and used by, everyone -
I'd like to join in... If there isn't, how to set up a standard?)

Thanks,
 Steffen
