Re: [HTCondor-users] condor_rm problems



Hi Greg,

Thanks for your answer! Why is it necessary to talk to the negotiator
for deleting jobs from the queue? Can't I just turn this behavior off?

Is there any other situation (querying the queue, like condor_q
-global, or submitting new jobs) when it can be a problem too if I
turn off the negotiator (problem = slows down things and eats up
memory as I understand)?

Actually, I turn off the negotiator to disable negotiation for a
while. Could you suggest another simple (and fast) way to turn off
negotiation temporarily other than shutting down the negotiator
completely? START=False for example not a viable solution, because as
far as I know I have to change the value on every machine, and
regarding the fact that machines are coming and going all the time,
there's no guarantee that a "hiding" machine won't just pop up after
the reconfiguration, and negotiator starts to negotiate again...

Thanks again,
Daniel
