[HTCondor-users] Submitting ABAQUS jobs to HTCondor cluster

[Kodanda Ram Mangipudi <kodanda@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

We have recently started using HTCondor and built a cluster. We are having problem in submitting ABAQUS jobs.

We are able run single and multicore jobs from user compiled codes, COMSOL, MATLAB, lammps, vasp etc. ABAQUS works normally on all the machines when started outside condor.

However, when an ABAQUS job is submitted, we get an error in the *.err file "ABAQUS Error: Launcher executable "condor_exec.exe" has not been found." Our submit script is pasted below.Â

What is the correct way to submit an abaqus job to condor?

We have ssh-askpass installed; two-way password-less login is enabled between master and compute nodes.

+++++ Job script ++++++++++++++++++++++

Âuniverse = vanilla

 getenv=True

 Executable Â= /opt/ABAQUS/Commands/abaqus

 arguments  = cpus=4 job=res input=uniÂ

 Log     = test.log                         ÂÂ

 Output   Â= test.out

 error    = test.err

 request_cpus = 4

 should_transfer_files = YES

 transfer_input_files = uni.inp

 transfer_executable = false

 when_to_transfer_output = ON_EXIT_OR_EVICT

 QueueÂ

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Best regards,

Kodanda
