Re: [HTCondor-users] DAGman notification

Ah, thanks for that Kent. A blurb about notification is probably warranted in the DAGMan docs.

Take care,

Louis

There are no special notifications for DAGMan that I know of. They are sent
for DAGMan submitted jobs in the same way as if a job is submitted without
DAGMan using condor_submit.

Actually, that's no longer correct. As of 7.9.2, by default DAGMan suppresses notification emails from node jobs. (See DAGMAN_SUPPRESS_NOTIFICATION:
A boolean value defining whether jobs submitted by condor_dagman will use email notification when certain events occur. If True, all jobs submitted by condor_dagman will have the equivalent of the submit command notification = never set. This does not affect the notification for events relating to the condor_dagman job itself. Defaults to True, implementing behavior in which the user receives one notification email when the condor_dagman job completes, rather than thousands of notifications from each of the jobs submitted by condor_dagman.)

So if you want to get notification emails from your node jobs, you need to set DAGMAN_SUPPRESS_NOTIFICATION to false in a per-DAG config file, or specify -dont_suppress_notification on the condor_submit_dag command line.
