[HTCondor-users] Related to Resizable Jobs - odd results

[Michael Pelletier <Michael.V.Pelletier@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a situation which I think is analogous to Brian Bockelman’s resizable jobs presentation from last year, but it’s not quite working how I expected.

 

We’ve got an application that wants to express its memory requirements in terms of the percentage of the total system memory. (Don’t get me started.) This means that like the resizable jobs, it needs to express its resource request in terms of machine attributes.

 

MEMORY_PERCENTAGE = 5

Request_memory = ($(MEMORY_PERCENTAGE) / 100.0 * TARGET.TotalMemory)

 

This doesn’t seem to be getting applied as expected – the condor_q output shows that the dynamic slot was created with the default memory request, and the RequestMemory value when queried shows UNDEFINED.

 

Any notions on how to approach this?
