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

[Robert.Nordlund@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I noticed upon reboot that all the jobs that I submitted were waiting since
the original execute machines still reported being in the Claimed state.
I found in the documentation that there is a combination of settings on the
scheduler and starter that affect the state change:
MAX_CLAIM_ALIVES_MISSED defaults to 6 and ALIVE_INTERVAL which defaults to
5 minutes.  I verified in my configuration  that the amount of time it
takes for the startd's to switch state to Unclaimed is 30 minutes (6 * 5
mins).

Thanks,
Bob

If your submit machine crashes, any running jobs are killed on the execute
machines. When the submit machine restarts, the jobs will be marked as
idle and Condor will attempt to acquire new machines on which to restart
them. Since scheduler universe jobs just run on the submit machine,
they're restarted immediately. Therefore, all your jobs need to be able to
deal with dying in mid-execution (or just after completion) and afterwards
being restarted.
