Hi

 

I am trying to reconfigure a worker nodes startd daemon using the python bindings, but I canât seem to figure it out from the documentation.

 

I can reconfigure the master daemon using the following:

 

masterd = coll.locate(htcondor.DaemonTypes.Master, machineName)

htcondor.send_command(startd, htcondor.DaemonCommands.Reconfig)

 

but when I try and have it just reconfigure the startd daemon with:

 

startd = coll.locate(htcondor.DaemonTypes.Startd, machineName)

htcondor.send_command(startd, htcondor.DaemonCommands.Reconfig)

 

I get the error âValueError: Unable to find daemon.â

 

Hi Greg,

This message indicates that the failure occurs when trying to resolve a TCP endpoint for the daemon (i.e., hasnât even tried to talk to the startd yet)*.

Typically, this indicates that there is no âMyAddressâ attribute in the startd ad; do you see it present?
