[Condor-users] Linux schedd on a windows pool

[Eric Abel <Eric.Abel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Fellow condor users,

 

Following advice I received from condor developers regarding a maximum number of submitted jobs for my windows schedd, I decided to install condor on a linux box, and set that up as a scheduler.  I was able to get the latest version (7.6.6) installed, and can see the pool with condor_status, but strangely, the linux slots are not present even though startd is running (as is schedd) :

 

condor    3816     1  0 07:48 ?        00:00:01 /usr/sbin/condor_master -pidfile /var/lib/condor/log/condor.pid

condor    3817  3816  0 07:48 ?        00:00:00 condor_startd -f

condor    3818  3816  0 07:48 ?        00:00:00 condor_schedd -f

root      3820  3818  0 07:48 ?        00:00:00 condor_procd -A /var/lib/condor/log/procd_pipe.SCHEDD -R 10000000 -S 60 -C 115

 

When I try to do condor_store_cred –c add, I get

 

Operation failed.

    Make sure you have CONFIG access to the target Master.

 

And when I try to submit a job (not surprisingly) it doesn’t work, and it gives the following message:

 

Submitting job(s)

ERROR: Failed to connect to local queue manager

AUTHENTICATE:1003:Failed to authenticate with any method

 

my config.local (which I pulled from a windows schedd) reads as follows:

 

CREDD_CACHE_LOCALLY = True

ALLOW_CONFIG = *.varian.com,$(IP_ADDRESS),$(CONDOR_HOST),Administrator@*

ALLOW_WRITE = $(FULL_HOSTNAME),$(IP_ADDRESS),*.varian.com

LOCAL_CONFIG_FILE = $(LOCAL_DIR)/condor_config.local

STARTER_ALLOW_RUNAS_OWNER = True

SEC_CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION_METHODS = NTSSPI, PASSWORD

SEC_CONFIG_NEGOTIATION = REQUIRED

SEC_CONFIG_AUTHENTICATION = REQUIRED

SEC_CONFIG_ENCRYPTION = REQUIRED

SEC_CONFIG_INTEGRITY = REQUIRED

 

Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Eric
