Okay, so the condor_startd is having no trouble talking to your central collector through the firewall. Sounds like it’s just the condor_starter processes that can’t get through the firewall. These processes are spawned by the condor_startd when a job is run on the machine.

Yes, even it is listing all the properties if I do

condor_status –l hostname

Can you “see” the machine in condor_status? What happens if you do:

 

condor_status <hostname>

 

Or:

 

condor_status -direct <hostname>

 

Where <hostname> should be replaced by the name of the machine.

I have condor version 6.6.10.

Yes I restarted Condor after I added condor processes in the Exception list.

May be once in a month this machine  turned off and on.

Is condor_starter not a child of condor_startd? I think I was told that this therefore inherits the rights

of its parent.

 

What version of Condor? Recent versions should be able to handle this for you.

 

Did you restart condor on that node after opening firewall?

 

Is the machine regularly turned off and on?

 

Cheers

Read carefully: condor_starter.exe -- NOT condor_startd.exe

I already added that (condor_startd.exe), I added all the condor process (three processes master, schedd, startd) in the exception list.

This is a guess on my part but for execution nodes you’ll also want to add condor_starter.exe to the exceptions lists.

Hi,

I am having some problem with Windows XP Firewall in the condor execution node.

If the Windows Firewall is “Off” then the jobs are running fine, suppose if it is “On” and even though if I specify to allow condor_master.exe, condor_schedd.exe, condor_startd.exe under the Exception Tab. Still the jobs are not running. Could you please let me know how to get rid of this problem.

Thanks,

Senthil
