Re: [HTCondor-users] Never use "notification" option for all usere

[John M Knoeller <johnkn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can configure your condor_schedd to refuse jobs that set Notification.

 

https://htcondor.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin-manual/policy-configuration.html?highlight=submit_requirement#submit-requirements

Just add this to the configuration of your schedd.

 

  SUBMIT_REQUIREMENT_NAMES = NoNotify $(SUBMIT_REQUIREMENT_NAMES)

  SUBMIT_REQUIREMENT_NoNotify = (JobNotfiication?:0) == 0

  SUBMIT_REQUIREMENT_NoNotify_REASON = "Jobs may not use the Notification feature"

 

Or you can use a submit transform to force the JobNotification attribute of all jobs to be NEVER.

 

https://htcondor.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin-manual/policy-configuration.html?highlight=submit_requirement#job-transforms

 

Just add this to the configuration of your condor_schedd

 

JOB_TRANSFORM_NAMES = $(JOB_TRANSFORM_NAMES) NoNotify

JOB_TRANSFORM_NoNotify @=end

   SET  JobNotification 0

@end

Subject: [HTCondor-users] Never use "notification" option for all usere

 

Hello,

 

I am now using HTCondor service and the notification option is supposed to be used for the people who want to see the status of the job submitted.

As far as I know, there is a option who wants to turn on and off the notifications.

However, since our server handles lots of jobs, around 1e+4~1e+5 jobs for a person and for a week, we would like to stop sending notifications to everybody.

 

Even though people set the option as "Notification=Always", can we ignore it and don't try to send email to their account?

 

Best Regards,
