RE: [condor-users] Condor sleeping

["Ron Viloria" <Ron.Viloria@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have many dual proc servers, and at most only one of the VMs go
offline, mostly vm1. Single procs look like they disappear. My user's
situation is different as I run the jobs for them, or our web system
does. All they care about are the results coming back and not really the
reporting of the nodes being online all the time. I can understand your
user's point of view though. We have an all-windows cluster for our
dedicated resources. Looking back, I think Ive also seen the same thing
on earlier versions, even earlier than 6.4. (XP, W2K, W2K3)

I easily run a script across the pool from time to time that restarts
the condor service. I have lived with that mechanism.
