Re: [Condor-users] late binding of universe type

[Dan Bradley <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ryan,

You should be able to use the $$() mechanism for remote_universe, just 
like any other attribute.  In the present scheme, if you want 
matchmaking to choose between grid and vanilla, you need to submit all 
of the jobs as grid universe jobs; a portion of those can then match to 
a Condor-C resource (i.e. a schedd) that will run them as vanilla jobs.

We have a daemon in development that does things the other way around: 
the jobs run directly as vanilla jobs by default, but under conditions 
that you can configure and control, they may also match to grid 
destinations and be transformed into grid jobs.
