Re: [HTCondor-users] parameters for submit file

Is there a way to setup a submit file so that different sets of jobs get different arguments.  For example, if you had a job which had 5000 sets of arguments and where each set of arguments needed to be run a 100 times, is there a way to set this up in a single submit file?  

If you have a single job like this:

Universe = vanilla
Executable = simple
Log = simple.log
Output = simple.out
Error = simple.error
Arguments = 1 2 3
Queue

Then you can submit the same job with different arguments by adding a new pair of "Arguments & Queue", such as this:

Universe = vanilla
Executable = simple
Log = simple.log
Output = simple.out
Error = simple.error
Arguments = 1 2 3
Queue
Arguments 4 5 6
Queue

If you want to run each of those a thousand times, just specify a number to the Queue statement:

Universe = vanilla
Executable = simple
Log = simple.log
Output = simple.out
Error = simple.error
Arguments = 1 2 3
Queue 100
Arguments 4 5 6
Queue 100
