[HTCondor-users] Personal Condor halts job

[Jan Balewski <janstar1122@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I just started learning how to install condor.

By base system is SL6.4
# uname -a
Linux reuse-stack05 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Oct 16 11:13:47 CDT 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I have used yum to install condor 
$ condor_version 
$CondorVersion: 8.0.4 Oct 19 2013 BuildID: 189770 $
$CondorPlatform: x86_64_RedHat6 $


My local /etc/condor/condor_config.local was modified to point to itself :
CONDOR_HOST = 19x.12x.16x.5x
...
ALLOW_WRITE = $(FULL_HOSTNAME), $(IP_ADDRESS), 19x.12x.16x.5x
ALLOW_READ = *


In  /etc/condor/condor_config
I have enabled :
USE_CKPT_SERVER = True   

I have disabled my fire wall
# service iptables stop
iptables: Flushing firewall rules:                         [  OK  ]
iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter          [  OK  ]
iptables: Unloading modules:                               [  OK  ]


Next, I change to a non-root user balewski and created this  test job with this content:

$ cat first.job
cmd = /bin/cat
args = /proc/self/status
output = first.job.$(cluster).$(process).out
error = first.job.$(cluster).$(process).err
log = first.job.log
queue 2

And submitted it :
$ condor_submit first.job 
Submitting job(s)..
2 job(s) submitted to cluster 8.


After few seconds I see both jobs have been halted:

[balewski@reuse-stack05 condor3]$ condor_q
