Re: [Condor-users] Problems matching jobs.

["Alas, Alex [FEDI]" <aalas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Again, hello to all of you,

In addition to my previous e-mail I ran the condor_q –analyze and the results are:

084.049:  Run analysis summary.  Of 20 machines,

     19 are rejected by your job's requirements

      0 reject your job because of their own requirements

      1 match but are serving users with a better priority in the pool

      0 match but reject the job for unknown reasons

      0 match but will not currently preempt their existing job

      0 are available to run your job

When I run the condor_status I have the following results:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>condor_status

Unfortunately, I am not a condor expert to fully understand what this error message is trying to tell me or what could be the best wayt to interpret it. Also when I tried to run condor_q –better I got the following message:

Sorry, the -better-analyze option is not available on this platform.

Due to the message, I know now there is something wrong on my job’s requirements that is preventing the job to match other nodes but I don’t know what? If anyone had experienced a similar issue and know more less how to get it to work, I really would appreciate your input,

Alex

Subject: [Condor-users] Problems matching jobs.

 

Hello to all of you,

I have a little issue with a type of job I am trying to submit. I have a condor pool of 20 nodes. I initially upgrade all the pool to version 7.05 but after reading all the issues that version was having with pre-empting jobs I decide to downgrade the central manager to version 7.01. The description file is the following way:

#########################################################################################

# Description file for Batch File for TESTING purposes

#########################################################################################

universe = vanilla

requirements = (Arch == "INTEL" && OpSys == "WINNT51") || \

                          (Arch == "INTEL" && OpSys == "WINNT52")

getenv = True

notify_user=usename@xxxxxxxxxx

initialdir = c:\condor\execute_bk

should_transfer_files = YES

when_to_transfer_output = ON_EXIT

Transfer_input_files = c:\windows\system32\systeminfo.exe

run_as_owner = true

executable = Batch4testv2.bat

output = Batch4testv3.out.$(Process)

error = Batch4testv3.err.$(Process)

log = Batch4testv3.log

queue 10

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

If the job is submitted like that It will only run on one machine, if I omit the run as owner line, it will run fine on all the different nodes. Not a problem as I said after removing the line. But this condor project was originally implemented to run jobs over network shares. For that I configured the pool to have a credd_host (which is the central manager) and the I created a condoruser with some reading and limited right to run those jobs. I set the condor_pool and the condoruser credentials\passwords on all the different computers set as execute machines. When I run the condor_store_cred query –c and condor_store_cred query –u condoruser all the computers come back saying:  A credential is stored and is valid. The description file is attached next. When I try to run this type of jobs it will only run on one computer, the same computer as the other jobs. If I remove the line RUN_AS_OWNER, the central manager will try to match the job with all the pool’s nodes but it will error out due to saying: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

Anyone has any ideas what log should I look into to find answers or any suggestions to solve this issue are more than welcome,

Thanks in advance for your input,

Alex
