Installing Condor As Execute-Only Node on Windows

As user Administrator, install Condor as Execute-only node. This will by default, allow this node to submit jobs. First download the condor-6.8.8 from http://parrot.cs.wisc.edu/. Get the condor-6.8.8-winnt50-x80.msi installer from condor web site. To get this file, first need to accept disclaimer and give them your email, company info etc., then you will get access to the installer site right away.

Step 1


Step 2, join the nanomia central manager

Step 3, Select Always run jobs and never suspend them. Even if the machine is intended to submit only as the case of the EITS, selecing running jobs sets up the configuration to add it to the pool. If it's in the poos we can use as a resource in case more resources are needed.

Step 4, enter shore.mbari.org for the UID domain.

Step 5. enter mail.mbari.org for SMTP server and dcline@mbari.org for email address of administrator.

Step 6. keep default which should be something like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_04\bin\JAVA.EXE

Step 7. Change read access and Write access to *.shore.mbari.org

Step 8. keep default.

Step 9. Select Install.

Step 10. Finish.










Sendmail setup on Windows

Edit c:\condor\condor_config.local, adding the following lines:

## For Condor on Win32 we need to specify an SMTP server so
## that Condor is able to send email.
SMTP_SERVER = mail.shore.mbari.org

Windows 2000 issues (this came up for the machine ULUA, which may be retired from the pool soon)

Had problems with java path and missing math libraries. Download scimark2lib from http://math.nist.gov/scimark2 and unpack into c:\condor\lib\scrimark2. 

If the machine Java installation in in the "Program files" directory, you may need to edit the c:/condor/condor_config, and add quotes around the change JAVA variable executable because "Program files" white space can cause problems.

JAVA = "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_08\jre\bin\JAVA.EXE"
