Re: [condor-users] Linux and Windows simultaneously

[Alexander Klyubin <A.Kljubin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Yes, it is possible to submit jobs from any platform Condor is running 
on. This means you can submit jobs from a Unix machine or a Windows 
machine. Naturally, Condor (at least the submit part of it) has to be 
installed on the machine.

Now to running jobs on different machines. The easiest way to run on 
Windows and Unix is to run Java jobs. In our pool we are also 
successfully running Fortran simulations compiled as Windows 
executables. On Windows machines the executables are started as they 
are, on Linux we have a wrapper script which runs the very same 
executables using WINE. Generally, Condor allows you to provide 
different executables or startup scripts for different platforms. This 
way you can submit jobs without worrying what platforms they will run on.

Regards,
Alexander Klyubin
