Re: [Condor-users] Jobs stay Idle ... been looking for 24 hours....

Yes ! Specifying Arch and OpSys helped. But now, the job runs and immediately goes into "held" state.

If you look at all of the above, you'll see:

1. Your job's requirements specify 'Arch == "INTEL"'
2. While there are indeed some INTEL/LINUX machines in the pool, they are all
in the "Owner" state, and thus won't run jobs.  The others are all "X86_64",
which (as far as Condor is concerned) different that "INTEL".

So, what should you do?

1. Look at the START _expression_ on the 32 bit, see why they're all in the
Owner state.
2. Allow your job to run on "INTEL" and "X86_64" machines (after all, these
are "INTEL" binaries, and should run on either IA32 or X86_64, right?).  You
can do this by adding something like this to your requirements _expression_:

Requirements = (  (OpSys == "LINUX") && ((Arch == "INTEL") || (Arch
== "X86_64" ))  )

This will for Condor to match your job to machines with the Arch attribute
as "INTEL" or "X86_64".

Hope this helps
