[Condor-users] Job Resubmission

[Giles Wright <giles.wright@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi - Just getting started with Condor. We're looking at running jobs on a local network of Linux machines with the potential of adding in a connection to an Amazon VPC in the future. Have set up a couple of virtual condor pools at 2 separate locations and have configured flocking between them. 

My question right now is how Condor deals with resubmitting failed jobs. For example, should a machine die during execution a job, it seems that the job terminates as you would expect, however we would like any failed jobs to be resubmitted to another available machine in the pool. Should we be looking at Condor-G (not started there yet) and condor_resubmit?

Thanks,
Giles
