Hi Suchandra,

Within a running job the environment variables $_CONDOR_JOB_AD and
$_CONDOR_MACHINE_AD point to a file in the job's scratch directory where the
classads can be read in a simple text-format.

See:
http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/v8.3/2_5Submitting_Job.html#2998
for details.

Cheers,
Will
