Re: [HTCondor-users] Stop all running jobs upon return

[Ben Cotton <ben.cotton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dennis,

It's been a little while since I've managed HTCondor on desktops, but I think you want the KILL configuration macro set to True on the startd:

KILL

A boolean _expression_ that, when True, causes HTCondor to immediately stop the execution of a vacating job, without delay. The job is hard-killed, so any attempt by the job to checkpoint or clean up will be aborted. This _expression_ should normally be False. When desired, it may be used to abort the graceful shutdown of a job earlier than the limit imposed by MachineMaxVacateTime.

Hi,

Â

Is there a configuration option to hard-kill all running jobs on a machine when I touch my keyboard?

When my machine is running jobs and I touch my keyboard it takes ages for the machine to respond properly. I guess it has something to do with the preempting taking a long time.
