OK one more question:With the requirements expression, how might one put this into a config file, so the user could add an expression like"+DoNotRestartJob = TRUE" to their submit file? Clearly I can addSHOULD_NOT_RESTART_TRIGGER = ( $(DoNotRestartJob) =?= TRUE ) && ( $ (NumJobStarts) > 0 ) && ( $(JobStatus) == 1 ) SYSTEM_PERIODIC_HOLD = $(SYSTEM_PERIODIC_HOLD) || ( $ (SHOULD_NOT_RESTART_TRIGGER) )
You don't want to refer to DoNotRestartJob as a configuration file macro, because it is a job attribute, so do not put $() around it.
But how do I add the requirements line to the central config file for general use?
You can use APPEND_REQUIREMENTS in the config file. --Dan
