Name¶
condor_qedit modify - job attributes
Synopsis¶
condor_qedit [-debug] [-n schedd-name] [-pool pool-name] {cluster | cluster.proc
| owner | -constraint constraint}attribute-nameattribute-value...
Description¶
condor_qeditmodifies 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-valuemay be any ClassAd expression. String
expressions must be surrounded by double quotes. Multiple attribute value
pairs may be listed on the same command line.
To ensure security and correctness, condor_qeditwill not allow modification of
the following ClassAd attributes:
-
- * Owner
-
- * ClusterId
-
- * ProcId
-
- * MyType
-
- * TargetType
-
- * JobStatus
Since JobStatus may not be changed with condor_qedit, use condor_holdto place a
job in the hold state, and use condor_releaseto release a held job, instead of
attempting to modify JobStatus directly.
If a job is currently running, modified attributes for that job will not affect
the job until it restarts. As an example, for PeriodicRemove to 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 PeriodicHold and 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".
A job's ClassAd attributes may be viewed with
condor_q -long
Exit Status¶
condor_qeditwill exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will
exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
