Re: [HTCondor-users] Personal HTCondor Install - how to reduce number of slots?

Hi John,

Thanks that seems to have worked.

Thank you very much!

I think you do have more than a single startd. The address you got back from condor_status

startd is overwriting the 2 slots of the properly configured startd, and thatâs why all of the addresses are the same.

Â

Try

Â

 ps aux | grep -I condor_startd

Â

or maybe

Â

 condor_off -startd

Â

If you have multiple startds, the condor_off will probably turn off only one of them, so wait a bit and then try

Â

condor_status again.

Hi John,

Â

Thank you for your response. If I run the two commands, it looks as though there is only one startd and the NUM_SLOTS should be 2:

mmxlabs@kubera:/etc/condor$Â Â condor_status -af myaddress

Do you maybe have multiple startdâs reporting to a single collector?

Â

Try

Â

ÂÂ condor_status -af myaddress

Â

You should get the same value for all the slots if they are all coming from a single startd.

Â

Or maybe something is overriding your config?

Â

Try this:

Â

condor_config_val -startd -verbose -dump NUM_SLOTS

Â

Does it still show NUM_SLOTS=2 ?

Subject: [HTCondor-users] Personal HTCondor Install - how to reduce number of slots?

Â

Hi All,

Â

I have been using condor in the âpersonal installâ setting for a while on version 8.0.5, and could happily control number of slots and cpu by modifying condor_config.local. However, I have recently installed 8.4.2 on Ubuntu through apt-get and the personal setting appears to always use as many slots as cpus.

Â

E.G. I have the following in condor_config.local settings:

NUM_SLOTS=2

Â

For a while condor_status show:

Â

mmxlabs@kubera:/etc/condor$ condor_status

Name        OpSys   Arch  State   Activity LoadAv Mem  ActvtyTime

Â

slot1@kubera    LINUX   X86_64 Unclaimed Benchmar 0.000 64426 0+00:00:04

slot2@kubera    LINUX   X86_64 Unclaimed Idle   0.000 64426 0+00:00:05

ÂÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Total Owner Claimed Unclaimed Matched Preempting Backfill

Â

       Total   2   0    0     2    0     0    0

Â

After a little while (i.e. 3 minutes) extra slots appear:

Â

mmxlabs@kubera:/etc/condor$ condor_status

Name        OpSys   Arch  State   Activity LoadAv Mem  ActvtyTime
