[Condor-users] Temporarily disabling quill?

[Stuart Anderson <anderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How does one temporarily disable Quill?

Setting QUILL_ENABLED = FALSE on a system that normally runs Quill is
rather humours:

while (TRUE) {
	condor_quilld exits with "Quill is currently disabled."
	condor_master notices and restarts quill
}

As I understand it, if I modify DAEMON_LIST to remove QUILL from
there I then need to restart condor_master itself, which means a
full shutdown/restart of the entire pool, which seems rather drastic.

The motivation for this is to be able perform maintenance/debugging tasks
on the underlying PostgreSQL database for a live pool, and hence trying to
redirect condor_q/condor_history queries to the schedd rather than
quill/database for the duration.

Thanks.
