Re: [Condor-users] CheckpointPlatform error

[Steven Timm <timm@xxxxxxxx>]

Todd--the message is saying that CheckpointPlatform is not in
the _job_ classad, this has nothing to do with machine classads.
I have been seeing this warning message from condor_q -better-analyze
for a very long time and, like you say, it is harmless.

To explore the "unknown reasons" why a job is rejected by certain machines
condor_q -ana -l <Clusterid>
will give you the last reason that a particular
job was rejected.  Group quotas, or sometimes the negotiator
just hasn't run yet.
