Re: [Condor-users] counting licenses possible solution....

[John Wheez <john@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Perhaps a solution is to use a dagman submit instead of a regular condor 
submit.

dagman creates a dependency between tasks in a job..so the first job 
would check to se how many licenses were available and depending on the 
result the second job would either be run or fail....if a job fails it 
is retried a few times and if it still fails..it is put in a held state 
and i belive condor creates a file of failed tasks(frames) which you can 
resubmit....a good gui would automate much of this for you.
