Re: [Condor-users] Multiple windows machine management?

For Linux and Solaris the binaries are run out of an NFS share but on
Windows we keep local copies of the binaries on the box. The upgrade
process we use for Windows shuts down Condor on a machine and then
pushes new binaries to the box remotely through the \\hostname\C$ UNC
path using an account that's set up as an administrator account on the
machine. And then starts Condor back up.

My experience is that running software off CIFS or SMB shares never
scales.
