Re: [condor-users] globus -> condor matching problem

[Mark Calleja <mcal00@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

As a caveat to my last email, the changes I have made to the condor.pm
file have resulted in condor jobs running on the gatekeeper itself not
being able to return redirected stdout to the condor-G client, whereas
that used to work fine before. I suspect that this may be tied up to the
requirements field no longer containing (FileSystemDomain ==
"silica.esc.cam.ac.uk") but instead (HasFileTransfer), which seems to
fix one problem but introduce another.

Comments (apart from that I should seek a new profession)?

Thanx,

Mark
