HTCondor 有用的资源

Getting started: Creating a multiple node Condor pool

[1] HTCondor默认使用TCP向condor_collector服务器发送更新请求.  condor_collector 服务器 由 CONDOR_VIEW_HOST设定

UPDATE_COLLECTOR_WITH_TCP


    默认值为True. HTCondor 使用TCP更新 condor_collector.如设置为 False, the HTCondor daemons 将使用 UDP 来更新 condor_collector.


UPDATE_VIEW_COLLECTOR_WITH_TCP


     When set to True, the HTCondor collector will use TCP to forward updates to condor_collector daemons specified by CONDOR_VIEW_HOST, instead of the default UDP. Defaults to False.


TCP_UPDATE_COLLECTORS


当 UPDATE_COLLECTOR_WITH_TCP 或 UPDATE_VIEW_COLLECTOR_WITH_TCP 被设置为 False时，.使用 TCP 更新 一组 condor_collector 服务器
 

[2]  within the collector log of the form

DaemonCore: PERMISSION DENIED to host <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx> for command 0 (UPDATE_STARTD_AD)

indicates a permissions problem. The condor_startd daemons do not have write permission to the condor_collector daemon. This could be because you used domain names in your HOSTALLOW_WRITE and/orHOSTDENY_WRITE configuration macros, but the domain name server (DNS) is not properly configured at your site. Without the proper configuration, HTCondor cannot resolve the IP addresses of your machines into fully-qualified domain names (an inverse look up). If this is the problem, then the solution takes one of two forms:

1. Fix the DNS so that inverse look ups (trying to get the domain name from an IP address) works for your machines. You can either fix the DNS itself, or use the DEFAULT_DOMAIN_NAME setting in your HTCondor configuration file.
2. Use numeric IP addresses in the HOSTALLOW_WRITE and/or HOSTDENY_WRITE configuration macros instead of domain names. As an example of this, assume your site has a machine such as foo.your.domain.com, and it has two subnets, with IP addresses 129.131.133.10, and 129.131.132.10. If the configuration macro is set as

    HOSTALLOW_WRITE = *.your.domain.com
   

   and this does not work, use

    HOSTALLOW_WRITE = 192.131.133.*, 192.131.132.*
   

Alternatively, this permissions problem may be caused by being too restrictive in the setting of your HOSTALLOW_WRITE and/or HOSTDENY_WRITE configuration macros. If it is, then the solution is to change the macros, for example from

 HOSTALLOW_WRITE = condor.your.domain.com

to

 HOSTALLOW_WRITE = *.your.domain.com

or possibly

 HOSTALLOW_WRITE = condor.your.domain.com, foo.your.domain.com, \
 bar.your.domain.com

Another likely error message within the collector log of the form

DaemonCore: PERMISSION DENIED to host <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx> for command 5 (QUERY_STARTD_ADS)

indicates a similar problem as above, but read permission is the problem (as opposed to write permission). Use the solutions given above.

 只在安装了特定软件的计算节点上运行计算任务，应如何配置？


  具体方法[4]分两步：
   步骤1：
     在安装了特定软件的计算节点的配置文件添加 参数 
     HAS_MY_SOFTWARE = True
     然后 添加 
      STARTD_ATTRS = HAS_MY_SOFTWARE, $(STARTD_ATTRS) 


   步骤2：
     在计算任务submit文件中添加
      Requirements = (HAS_MY_SOFTWARE =?= True)
