Re: [Condor-users] BOINC running, all machine Owner




i should have mentioned yet another work-around until there's "native"
BOINC support in condor: just run the BOINC client as a condor job.
you can submit the jobs as "niceuser" jobs so they're automatically
low priority, background tasks from condor's scheduling point of
view.  you can submit them with "on_exit_remove = false" so they stay
in the queue forever.  there are some details to get right in terms of
the BOINC configuration issues of doing it this way, but it can be
made to work, and then you don't have to worry about condor and BOINC
jobs trying to run simultaneously.
