The question that follows as a result of this is: can I have condor transfer data files to the executor but NOT the executable?
For jobs submitted to the globus universe, as well as vanilla and MPI. If transfer_executable is set to False, then Condor looks for the executable on the remote machine, and does not transfer the executable over. This is useful if you have already pre-staged your executable and wish to have Condor behave more like rsh. Defaults to True. The default value is True.
