Re: [HTCondor-users] condor_kbdd is not resetting KeyBoardIdle

[Tim Theisen <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Daniel,

My apologies for taking so long to get back to you.

The problem is that the default value for SLOTS_CONNECTED_TO_CONSOLE and 
SLOTS_CONNECTED_TO_KEYBOARD changed in version 23.0 to 0. The previous 
default was $(NUM_CPUS). That worked fine in the static slot days, since 
there was exactly one slot per CPU. However with partitionable slots, 
one could have n partitionable slots plus m dynamic slots. So, I just 
set these configuration knobs to a large value.

If you add

SLOTS_CONNECTED_TO_KEYBOARD=1024*1024
SLOTS_CONNECTED_TO_CONSOLE=1024*1024

Your keyboard daemon will work as before. Starting the version 23.0.4, 
installing the kbdd package will drop a file in /etc/condor/config.d 
that adds the KBDD to the DAEMON_LIST and sets the two value above.

...Tim
