Re: [Condor-users] Notification of Cluster Complete - notprocesscomplete

[Robert.Nordlund@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I was under the assumption that if I submitted jobs and my submit machine
died, I lost all connection to the running jobs and jobs yet to be
scheduled.  Is this the case or am I completely misguided?

No, you would submit the job as a "scheduler universe" job. Scheduler
universe
jobs run on the submit machine - they're not matched, so you can run as
many of
them as you want. DAGMan is the prime example of a scheduler universe job -

run 'condor_submit_dag -nosubmit' to see what it would tell the schedd to
do.

The reason for running a scheduler universe job is that Condor will
automatically
restart it if the machine reboots - you don't have to write fancy cron
scripts to
make sure that it is still running for you.
