Re: [Condor-devel] SCHEDD_NAME




All I can remember is that back in the dark ages, when we were first messing around with "personal condors" and trying to make things work-able, we found that people were regularly confused and ran into trouble if everything after the @ wasn't a fqdn.

Furthermore, there is logic in The Tool(tm) that resolves hostnames in the command-line args to be able to locate the daemon you're trying to talk to. Actually, the logic is probably in the Daemon object itself. So, if you say:

"condor_reschedule wright@tonic"

the tool knows enough to find the right schedd. That depends on it really being a fqdn...

So, for schedd failover, the schedd will have a different name, depending on which machine is "live"? (Assuming we aren't playing games with IP addresses or DHCP). And thus I have to know which schedd is live, and pass that on the command line to condor_q and friends? (I assume that personal condors predate schedd failover?)
