Re: [Condor-users] writing hawkeye modules

[obi <graziano@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

more information. Changing the configuration to

STARTD_CRON_NAME = HAWKEYE
HAWKEYE_JOBLIST = NWS
HAWKEYE_NWS_EXECUTABLE = /bin/cat
HAWKEYE_NWS_ARGS = "/home/graziano/test"
HAWKEYE_NWS_PERIOD = 60s

seems to make everything a bit happire: now I got 

2/6 17:17:29 Completed initial benchmarks.
2/6 17:17:29 Cron: Initializing job 'NWS' (/bin/cat)

in the logs but nothing shows up in the classad (as per codor_status -l).

Are there any more logs to check?
