[HTCondor-users] does condor_off -peaceful -daemon startd node; works for vanilla jobs?

[Harald van Pee <pee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I want to set a job running node offline, but only after all running jobs have finished. Of course until then no new jobs should be accepted on that node.

 

I tried the command:

 

condor_off -peaceful -daemon startd node

and got the message:

Sent "Set-Peaceful-Shutdown" command to startd node

Sent "Kill-Daemon-Peacefully" command to master node

 

On node I see in StartLog

08/18/16 17:20:49 Got SIGTERM. Performing graceful shutdown.

08/18/16 17:20:49 shutdown graceful

 

And indeed all jobs running in vannilla universe (we have no others)

are killed directly and started from the beginning. This is what a

graceful shutdown will do with vanilla jobs. But I want to have a peaceful shutdown.

 

Is a peaceful shutdown not possible for vanilla jobs?

Do I have to change the configuration? We use:

PREEMPT = FALSE

PREEMPTION_REQUIREMENTS = False

KILL = FALSE

WANT_SUSPEND = false

WANT_VACATE = false

 

Or can I use just a different command?

 

We use condor 8.4.8 on debian 8 (AMD64).

 

Thanks

Harald
