Re: [Condor-users] Laptops as condor execute machines

[Ben Cotton <bcotton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We've avoided joining laptops to our pools since they tend to
disappear abruptly and turn up on unexpected networks. What I'd do in
your case is write a STARTD_CRON program that asks the OS for the
power status and inserts that as a ClassAd. You could then use that
ClassAd in your START expression. How to write the program is left as
an exercise to the reader. :-)
