[HTCondor-users] Usage of $(HOUR) in submit files

[Andreas Haupt <andreas.haupt@xxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

some of our users noticed that with HTCondor-23 (23.0.10 in our case)
variables like $(HOUR) are no longer usable in submit files:

[wgs34] ~/projects/htcondor/jobs % grep Runtime job-simple-with-time.sdl
+RequestRuntime	= 10 * $(HOUR)
[wgs34] ~/projects/htcondor/jobs % condor_submit job-simple-with-time.sdl
Submitting job(s)ERROR: Parse error in expression: 
	RequestRuntime = 10 * 


However, variable is still defined:

[wgs34] ~/projects/htcondor/jobs % condor_config_val HOUR
3600

It still works / worked on submission hosts with HTC-10. Is this a
regression? Or a documented behaviour?

Thanks,
Andreas
