Re: [Condor-users] System Variables as arguments [Sec=Unclassified]

[Dan Bradley <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The $$() mechanism allows you to insert attributes from the target 
machine ClassAd.  Example in submit file:

arguments = $$(Machine)

The above would result in the machine's attribute named "Machine" being 
passed as an argument to the job.  To see all of the attributes 
available in the machine ClassAd, do condor_status -long.  You can also 
extend the ClassAd by adding custom attributes of your own.
