Re: [HTCondor-users] [External] Notification :- setting "notify_user" as variable not working

["Pelletier, Michael V. RTX" <Michael.V.Pelletier@xxxxxxx>]

Change this:

"notify_user": "$(emailid)",

to this:

"notify_user": emailid,

This formulation references the Python variable, which is not visible to the condor_submit $() expansion, and sets notify_user to the e-mail string. The $() expansion references other submit macros in the submission, so an alternative would be this:

âEMAILIDâ:emailid

ânotify_userâ:â$(emailid)â

 

Youâd wind up with an identical ClassAd in the end, though, since condor_submit would just put the email string in there anyway upon expanding $(emailid).

Subject: [External] [HTCondor-users] Notification :- setting "notify_user" as variable not working

 

Hi Guys,

                 I need condor to send email notifications to the job owner.

I have captured the user's email id in a variable and passed that in the submit file but condor doesn't seem to be using it and sending e-mail do owner@uid-domain which is default. 

 

I am using following python codes to achieve this :- 

 

def submit_jobs():

        emailid = get_email()    ( capturing user email as str )

        emailid = emailid.split()  ( capturing user email as list )

 

        job = htcondor.Submit({
                                "executable": "$(bin)",
                                "arguments": "$(config)",
                                "output": "$(outfile)",
                                "error": "$(errfile)",
                                "log": "jobstatus.log",
                                "request_cpus": "1",
                                "request_memory": "2GB",
                                "request_disk": "4MB",
                                "RunAsOwner": "True",
                                "notification": "Always",
                                "notify_user": "$(emailid)",
                                "should_transfer_files": "No",
                                })

 

I tried passing user email id both as str and as list but nothing worked.

 

Please let me know what I am missing here. 

 

Thanks,

Gagan
