Hello everybody,
I am a very bew to Condor, and have been a constant passive reader of
the user-mailing list, trying to understand what all features it could
provide and how to configure it for different resources. I am able to
configure condor on using a 3 machine pool with one as the Central
Manager. All the jobs submitted are submitted to the Central Manager
and then distributed from Central Manager for execution. I am able to
configure condor to run MPI jobs too over it.
However, the problem starts here, as the part of my Master's project I
have to include a new factor in machines called as "Reliability" to
all my machine resources. Now this factor will tell me how much is the
machine reliable so that scheduler can take this in to account as the
part of calculating RANK for each machine. This "Reliability" factor
is just a general idea so that the scheduling could be perform in a
better way, taking account of how machine will perform in future. The
"Reliability" factor is the value we generate on the scale of 1-10
from 1 being the lowest and 10 being highly reliable. Now my problem
is I can easily include this as a ClassAd expression with a constant
value in my local config file of all machines and then CONDOR can use
it for calculating the RANK expression. However I would like the
inclusion of this ClassAd as dynamic, i.e. the value of the
"Reliability" factor should be entered dynamically through an output
of a script, and then this should be taken in to account by Condor
without restarting it, as I will do if I add the ClassAd in the config
file.
It would be great if any help could be provided in this regard. I have
even tried hawkeye which let me do all this using an addition of a
module, but the problem with hawkeye was the module installation
script is not working. So any information regarding this would be a
great help for me.
Thank you,
