Re: [Condor-users] 7.2 error: "Required attribute "CONTINUE" is not defined"

[Jason Stowe <jstowe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Matt,
The CONTINUE configuration entry is used for specifying when the
Startd should continue a suspended job:
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.2/3_3Configuration.html#14590

It sounds like this entry isn't in the machine's condor configuration
files. To test this, type:
condor_config_val -verbose -config CONTINUE

If it isn't there, and you wanted suspended jobs to continue if:
1. the CPU is idle and
2. the job has been suspended for 10 seconds and
3. the keyboard has been idle for 5 minutes:
Then put this in your condor_config file:
CONTINUE = ( $(CPUIdle) && ($(ActivityTimer) > 10) \
                  && (KeyboardIdle > 300) )

Hope this helps.

Best,
Jason
