Re: [HTCondor-users] Is it possible to immediately suspend jobs of a DAGman job?

Mark,

Thanks for your reply! It works now. But looks like the slot is still claimed, not released, is that expected? or we need to set some configs like "keep_claim_idle" to release it?

Hello,

The behavior you're seeing is as expected. Running condor_hold on a running DAGMan will only hold DAGMan itself, not any jobs running under it.

If you want to suspend the jobs running under DAGMan, you have to do this manually:

condor_hold <DAGManJobId>

condor_hold -constraint "DAGManJobId == <DAGManJobId>"

Later, to release them all again:

condor_release <DAGManJobId>

condor_release -constraint "DAGManJobId == <DAGManJobId>"

Hope this helps,

Mark

Hi all,

I am using DAGMan to run jobs, and want to suspend it, but i only found that condor_hold can't immediately stop running jobs until next ones. I have tried condor_suspend, but looks like it doesn't work for DAGman jobs, could you tell me if a DAGman jobs can be immediately suspended? Thanks a lot!
