Re: [Condor-users] Problem installing condor on cluster.

do
condor_config_val LOCK

Is it similar to this:
LOCK            = /var/lock/condor

If not then search LOCK in global config file make an entry like this

and then create the directory

mkdir -p /var/lock/condor
chmod 777 /var/lock/condor

Yoou have to create the directory on every node.

here is a part listing of the condor_config
 

/home/condor/condor_config
CONDOR_HOST  = thebeast

##  Where have you installed the bin, sbin and lib condor directories?
RELEASE_DIR = /home/condor/release
 
##  Where is the local condor directory for each host?
LOCAL_DIR  = /home/condor/hosts/$(HOSTNAME)

##  Where is the machine-specific local config file for each host?
LOCAL_CONFIG_FILE  = /home/condor/release/etc/$(HOSTNAME).local

 
------
 
so in respect of $(HOSTNAME).local I have edited the following file for my central manager.
 

/home/condor/release/etc/thebeast.local
 
DAEMON_LIST   = MASTER, COLLECTOR, NEGOTIATOR, STARTD, SCHEDD

 
Now the hostname environmental variable looks up fine.
 

thebeast:/home/condor # hostname
thebeast
thebeast:/home/condor # echo $HOSTNAME
thebeast
thebeast:/home/condor #

 
So I could assume i could run the condor daemons on the central manager machine successfully.
 

thebeast:/home/condor # condor_master
thebeast:/home/condor # ps -fe | grep condor
condor    5272     1  0 16:34 ?        00:00:00 condor_master
condor    5273  5272  0 16:34 ?        00:00:00 condor_schedd -f -n root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This is all im getting.. And running the collector and negotiator manually doesnt make any difference.
They are running in memory but no node can connect. condor_status on any node returns error that
the collector on thebeast can not be contacted even after I ran them manually.
Each node can ping thebeast fine and the host read and write are set properly.
 
any ideas?
 
thanks

Subject: [Condor-users] Problem installing condor on cluster.


I have a cluster with 24 nodes and a manager node.
 
names of each are
 
mgmnt.cluster.int
node1.cluster.int
node2.cluster.int
..
node24.cluster.int
 
mgmnt.cluster.int has an alias thebeast.cluster.int (it was setup this way by the company that installed the cluster).
so when i log into the manager i get the prompt [thebeast] but if i ping thebeast it starts pinging mgmnt.cluster.int (192.168.1.1).
 
on the cluster /home/condor is shared between all nodes.
 
I ran condor_install and setup the various options, selecting that /home/condor was shared and the relevant options with config files etc.
 
During condor_install i set the condor central manager to mgmnt.cluster.int
 
The cluster manager machine is also my condor central manager. 
 
I then ran condor_init and then condor_master but the collector and a few other processes associated with the central manager
is not running so I can only presume than when im executing condor_master on this machine its only recognising itself as a normal
node and not the central manager which I want it to be.
 
Is there something simple I am missing or overseeing?
 
Many thanks in advance
