[HTCondor-users] missing resource request with grid_resource = nordugrid

["Fischer, Max (SCC)" <max.fischer@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

we are trying to get a local research group to push jobs from their HTCondor to our Tier 1 ARC-CE+HTCondor cluster. However, none of the REQUEST_* parameters of their jobs are passed on to us, e.g. an 8-core job gets only a 1-core slot. We only see the information explicitly added via the nordugrid_rsl parameter.
Needless to say, they are at the top of our job kill highscore now.

We have confirmed this with minimal (non-)working JDL [1], which does not generate the proper request for 8 cpus [2].

I am quite sure the error is not with the CE, since there are a lot of VOs properly submitting jobs.
Do they need to configure anything specifically to get their HTCondor to pass on these parameters to us?

Cheers,
Max
