Re: [Condor-users] maxidle for a dag with one node?



We are still using Condor version 7.4 and it seems neither of these is available to us. I did look at the node status file but DAGMan claimed it was an unknown key word. Perhaps now is the time to upgrade. ;)

Thanks for your input though!

One note on this -- for your postprocessing, I'd suggest using either a
node status file
(http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.7/2_10DAGMan_Applications.html#SECTION0031010000000000000000)
or jobstate.log file
(http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.7/2_10DAGMan_Applications.html#SECTION0031011000000000000000)
instead of the dagman.out file. Both the node status file and the
jobstate.log file have much simpler formats than the dagman.out file,
and the formats are less likely to change with in any future versions of
DAGMan. They are specifically designed to be easily machine-parseable,
while the dagman.out file is not.

Note that neither the node status file nor the jobstate.log file is
created by default -- you have to specify them in your DAG for them to
get created.
