[Condor-devel] From whence the starter gets the job ad

[Greg Thain <gthain@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

All:

In looking through the shadow code, I was surprised to learn that the 
starter doesn't get the job ad from the startd, rather, it gets the job 
ad to run by running an RSC to the shadow immediately after it starts 
up.  This means that the shadow sends a job ad to the startd to activate 
the claim, but could potentially send a different job ad to the starter 
to actually run the job.

Is there any good reason we do this?  Seems like it is a problem for a 
number of reasons.
