Hi again Steve

Thanks for your responses and taking the time to help us.

OK, that makes sense. That is how I thought/assumed it should work.
That's why I can't understand what's wrong. As you say, the schedd
updates the collector on it's local central manager which forwards this
on to the view_server collector.

In fact, it appears that only jobs running in the same pool as the
submit machine are getting correctly reported, regardless of which
pool the submit node is in. It is jobs that flock to another Pool 
that are not getting reported.

Perhaps my original email didn't describe things well.

All collectors in pools A, B and C are configured to report to the
view_server collector (which just happens to reside in pool A).

If a submit machine in A runs jobs in A then the view server reports
running jobs as expected.

If a submit machine in A runs jobs in B or C then the view server
does not report the jobs as running (condor_q show them running though).

If a submit machine in B runs jobs in B then the view server reports
the jobs as running as expected.

If a submit machine in B runs jobs in A or C then the view server
does not report then jobs as running (condor_q / schedd does).

The exact same trends occur for a submit machine in C.

We're about to bite the bullet and try updates with TCP, even though
the manual doesn't exactly sound encouraging! :)

Cheers
