Re: [HTCondor-users] condor_submit dynamic slot command line issue

["Beyer, Christoph" <christoph.beyer@xxxxxxx>]

Hi TJ,

Interesting, and makes sense then :)

Is the default interactive submit file defined on a per userbase for ex. Like a .file in $home or is it per submit host ?

HaÃpy easter

when you don't use a submit file with -interactive.  condor_submit automatically loads a 'default' submit file which looks like this.

	universe = vanilla
	executable = /bin/sleep
	arguments = 180
	environment = "TMOUT=7200"
	transfer_executable = false
	notification = never
	priority = 1000
	request_memory = 512m
	queue

When you use command line "key=value" with condor_submit, those statements are prefixed to the submit file, so 
whatever is in the file will win.   If you want your request_memory to win, you have to use -append so your statements
are appended to the file.  

Alternatively, you could change the default interactive submit file so that it honors command line values like this...

request_memory = $(request_memory:512m)

Subject: [HTCondor-users] condor_submit dynamic slot command line issue

Hello,

i run into the following phenomen when trying to start interactive jobs 
on a dynamic slot.

It seems that "request_memory" is not recognized from the command line 
i.e. (Machines have 16GB RAM.)


condor_submit -i "request_memory=9000" fails with "No match found"


But using a "Submit file" the request works:

condor_submit -i condorSubmit

File condorSubmit:
request_memory = 9000

Queue


I tried "RequestMemory" syntax as well to no avail.

Is there anything i do miss ?

Regards

Heiko
