Re: [HTCondor-users] preserve on/off state over restart

[Todd Tannenbaum <tannenba@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

On option is to set START_DAEMONS=False knob in the config file; you 
could do this remotely via condor_config_val -set.  Cut-n-pasted from 
section 3.3 of the Manual below...  "HTCondor... there's a knob for 
that" (tm)

regards,
Todd


START_MASTER
    If this setting is defined and set to False when the condor_master 
starts up, the first thing it will do is exit. This appears strange, but 
perhaps you do not want HTCondor to run on certain machines in your 
pool, yet the boot scripts for your entire pool are handled by a 
centralized This is an entry you would most likely find in a local 
configuration file, not a global configuration file.

START_DAEMONS
    This macro is similar to the $(START_MASTER) macro described above. 
However, the condor_master does not exit; it does not start any of the 
daemons listed in the $(DAEMON_LIST). The daemons may be started at a 
later time with a condor_on command.
