[Condor-users] condor-reuse-slot username problem

[Andrew Schenk <schenka@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Is it possible to replace the prefix "condor-reuse-slot" of the users that condor creates to something shorter?

On a 64 core machine partitioned into 4 dynamic slots with the configuration:

"SLOT_TYPE_1 = cpus=25%, memory=22%, virt=22%, disk=22%

SLOT_TYPE_1_PARTITIONABLE = True

NUM_SLOTS_TYPE_1 = 4"

The associated Windows usernames are:

condor-reuse-slot1_1

condor-reuse-slot1_2

condor-reuse-slot1_3

...

condor-reuse-slot1_10

The problem is that Windows limits non-active directory account names to a maximum of 20 characters. "condor-reuse-slot1_10" is 21 characters long, thus in the StarterLog the following error occurs:

"07/09/12 19:26:03 Account condor-reuse-slot1_10 creation failed! (err=2202)"

In fact, even using Computer Management you are unable to create a user named "condor-reuse-slot1_10"
