Start up Condor daemons

Synopsis

condor_ on [-help | -version]

condor_ on [-debug] [-name hostname | hostname | -addr "<a.b.c.d:port>" | "<a.b.c.d:port>" ... ]| [-all]
[-subsystem master | startd | schedd | collector | negotiator | kbdd | quill]

condor_ on [-debug] [-pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber] | -name hostname ]| [-addr "<a.b.c.d:port>"] ... [ | -all]
[-subsystem master | startd | schedd | collector | negotiator | kbdd | quill]

Description

condor_ on starts up a set of the Condor daemons on a set of machines. This command assumes that the condor_ master is already running on the machine. If this is not the case, condor_ on will fail complaining that it cannot find the address of the master. The command condor_ on with no arguments or with the -subsystem master option will tell the condor_ master to start up the Condor daemons specified in the configuration variable DAEMON_LIST. If a daemon other than the condor_ master is specified with the -subsystem option, condor_ on starts up only that daemon.

This command cannot be used to start up the condor_ master daemon.

For security purposes (authentication and authorization), this command requires an administrator's level of access. See section 3.6.1 on page  for further explanation.

Options

-help

Display usage information

-version

Display version information

-pool centralmanagerhostname[:portnumber]

Specify a pool by giving the central manager's hostname and an optional port number

-name hostname

Send the command to a machine identified by hostname

hostname

Send the command to a machine identified by hostname

-addr "<a.b.c.d:port>"

Send the command to a machine's master located at "<a.b.c.d:port>"

"<a.b.c.d:port>"

Send the command to a machine located at "<a.b.c.d:port>"

-all

Send the command to all machines in the pool

-subsystem master | startd | schedd | collector | negotiator | kbdd | quill

Send the command to the named daemon. Without this option, the command is sent to the condor_ master daemon.

-debug

Causes debugging information to be sent to stderr based on the value of the configuration variable TOOL_DEBUG

Exit Status

condor_ on will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.

Examples

To begin running all daemons (other than condor_ master) given in the configuration variable DAEMON_LIST on the local host:

% condor_on

To start up only the condor_ negotiator on two named machines:

% condor_on  robin cardinal -subsystem negotiator

To start up only a daemon within a pool of machines other than the local pool, use the -pool option. The argument is the name of the central manager for the pool. Note that one or more machines within the pool must be specified as the targets for the command. This command starts up only the condor_ schedd daemon on the single machine named cae17 within the pool of machines that has condor.cae.wisc.edu as its central manager:

% condor_on -pool condor.cae.wisc.edu -name cae17 -subsystem schedd
