[HTCondor-users] singularity --writable in condor?

[James Clark <james.clark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm seeing the following error when running singularity jobs in condor on LIGO clusters:

ERRORÂ : Failed creating home directory in container /var/singularity/mnt/final/home/jclark: Operation not supported
ABORTÂ : Retval = 255

I can reproduce this at the command line with:

singularity exec /cvmfs/ligo-containers.opensciencegrid.org/james-clark/bayeswave:master BayesWave

I can fix this by adding --writable to the command line, e.g.,:

singularity exec --writable ...

How do we pass this option in condor?
