Re: [Condor-users] condor_master.exe does not start onwindows machine reboot

[kschwarz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Ian,

According to our IT people the Samba
service configuration is
[condor]
        comment
= Environment HPC-GRID
        path =
/some/path/to/condor/config
        browsable
= no
        guest ok
= yes
        writable
= no
        short preserve
case = yes
        preserve
case = yes
        oplocks
= no

Similar to yours.
But I am still facing the shared filesystem
access delay that prevents Condor service to start.
Any other clue?

The only reliable way I've been able to find to get Condor on Windows to
read configuration files, off a network share, using a UNC path, is to
use Samba, with the share configured for wide-open, read-only access.

Anything that involves any authentication step seems to trip up Windows
services.

I use the follow smb.conf entry to share out configuration files for
Windows machines:

        [condor]
                comment = Condor
Configuration File Share
                path = /opt/condor
                public = yes
                only guest = yes
                writeable = no
                printable = no
                browseable = no

Windows machines are told to read \\sambahost\condor\condor_config as
their configuration file. That has not only worked reliably for us for
a
few years now, but its scaled quite well.
