Someone should take a look at this and make it more user-friendly. The
concern in the manual validly applies to macros like Cluster and
Process, they are guaranteed to change between invocations. However,
there are many macros, those that assist in templating, for which the
concern does not apply -- Ka-Hei Law provides a very nice example.

It is documented in the manual:
An additional restriction applies to the submit description file
command Log
specific to a Condor job within a DAG node. This command may not be
defined in
such a way that it uses macros. Using a macro would violate the
restriction
that there be exactly one log file specified for the potentially
multiple jobs
within a single cluster.

Dear all,
When I try to use a single job script for mulitple jobs in DAGMan, I
get the following error:
MultiLogFiles: macros ('$(...') not allowed in log file name
($(id).condor_log) in DAG node submit files
See below for my job script. It contains a $(id) macro in the log
file name, where $(id) is defined with "Vars" in the DAG script.
According to the example in the documentation (under the heading
"Single submit description file" in link [1]), this should work.
As a result, condor is not saving log files for the individual jobs.
Is it possibly a bug? Should I post it on the bug tracker?
Thanks,
Ka-Hei
PS: Similar questions [2, 3] have been asked before but no one
replied. Hopefully someone will see this post :-)
