Re: [HTCondor-users] problem checkpoint_exit_code

[Jason Patton <jpatton@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

"checkpoint_exit_code" was added in 8.9.3, so the best option would be (if possible) to upgrade to the latest 8.9 release (8.9.5). Improving and officially releasing vanilla universe self-checkpointing has been an emphasis in recent versions.

If you cannot upgrade, for 8.6 (where vanilla universe self-checkpointing was still considered an experimental feature), I believe you can get similar behavior as "checkpoint_exit_code = 1" by using these lines instead in your submit file:

+WantFTOnCheckpoint = TRUE

+CheckpointExitCode = 1

See this wiki page for more details: https://htcondor-wiki.cs.wisc.edu/index.cgi/wiki?p=HowToRunSelfCheckpointingJobs

Hi,

Can you let us know which version of HTCondor your submit machine is running ("condor_version")? Some of the self-checkpointing functionality is only available in more recent versions.

Thanks
