Re: [Condor-users] notification on error

["Alas, Alex [FEDI]" <aalas@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rich,

Thanks for your input, unfortunately I don't have control on which type
of signals this application generates, since the developer team is who
controls this process. I am only the Sys Admin who interacts with the
end user. Although in the past when the application would had failed due
to a signal, condor would had logged it as abnormal termination, now
It's different, and it is logged as Normal termination (return value
-1073741629). 

I can consult with the developer and see if the type of signal can be
changed.

Thanks for your input,

Alex

SIGTERM signals don't generate error states. SIGTERM tell a process to
initiate a clean shutdown. As far as the parent process can tell it is a
normal termination of the child process, the same as if it finished
running and exited normally. Perhaps you should be sending SIGINT or
SIGKILL signals instead of SIGTERM?
