Re: [HTCondor-users] How to set a worker node offline in HTCondor

[John M Knoeller <johnkn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

In general the mechanism that we use to avoid cancelling a drain that was not started by defrag is to look for the DrainReason attribute of the p-slot.   

Draining can be cancelled by the Defrag daemon if there is no DrainReason, or if the DrainReason is "defrag". 

There should always be a DrainReason attribute if draining was started by an 8.9.11 or later condor_drain command, or by an 8.9.11 or later DEFRAG daemon.

I just had an 8.9.11 startd resume running jobs after condor_drain completed and StartLog recorded, "Processing cancel drain request from <10.14.0.25:42650>" where 10.14.0.25 is an 8.9.11 CM running condor_defrag.
