Name
condor_qedit - modify job attributes
Synopsis
condor_qedit [ -debug ] [ -n schedd-name ] [ -pool pool-name ] {cluster
| cluster.proc | owner | -constraint constraint} attribute-name
attribute-value ...
Description
condor_qedit modifies job ClassAd attributes of queued Condor jobs. The
jobs are specified either by cluster number, job ID, owner, or by a
ClassAd constraint expression. The attribute-value may be any ClassAd
expression. String expressions must be surrounded by double quotes.
- To ensure security and correctness, condor_qedit will not allow modification of the following ClassAd attributes:
- * Owner
- * ClusterId
- * ProcId
- * MyType
- * TargetType
- * JobStatus
- Since JobStatusmay not be changed with condor_qedit , use condor_hold to place a job in the hold state, and use condor_release to release a held job, instead of attempting to modify JobStatusdirectly.
- If a job is currently running, modified attributes for that job will not affect the job until it restarts. As an example, for PeriodicRemoveto affect when a currently running job will be removed from the queue, that job must first be evicted from a machine and returned to the queue. The same is true for other periodic expressions, such as PeriodicHoldand PeriodicRelease.
Options
- -debug
- Causes debugging information to be sent to stderr, based on the value of the configuration variable TOOL_DEBUG
- -n schedd-name
Modify job attributes in the queue of the specified schedd- -pool pool-name
Modify job attributes in the queue of the schedd specified in the specified pool
Examples
% condor_qedit -name north.cs.wisc.edu -pool condor.cs.wisc.edu 249.0
answer 42
Set attribute "answer".
% condor_qedit -name perdita 1849.0 In '"myinput"'
Set attribute "In".
% condor_qedit jbasney NiceUser TRUE
Set attribute "NiceUser".
% condor_qedit -constraint 'JobUniverse == 1' Requirements '(Arch ==
"INTEL") && (OpSys == "SOLARIS26") && (Disk >= ExecutableSize) && (VirtualMemory >= ImageSize)'
Set attribute "Requirements".
General Remarks
- A job's ClassAd attributes may be viewed with
- condor_q -long
Exit Status
condor_qedit will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success,
and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
