[Condor-users] inner dag in 7.2.0

[Dimitri Maziuk <dmaziuk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's another 7.2.0 problem:

We run a bunch of parallel jobs followed by one clean-up/summary job that must 
run even if some of the former failed. So we have an inner dag for them and 
outer dag that runs that, override its return value in post-script, and runs 
the clean-up job.

The batch is submitted from an NFS share. So we take the output 
of "condor_submit_dag -no_submit inner.dag" and replace the cwd condor sticks 
into "log = " line with /var/tmp. We did that "in place", without renaming 
the file. That worked fine until 7.2.0 upgrade.

What seems to happen now is when we run "condor_submit_dag outer.dag", it 
overwrites our inner submit file and the whole thing fails because log file 
is on nfs. I.e. "condor_submit_dag outer.dag" now also 
does "condor_submit_dag -no_submit inner.dag".
