Note: This version of the VDT (1.3.9) is no longer supported. Feel free to look through the documentation and install it, but we cannot guarantee support for it. The current stable release is 2.0.0.
If you are installing the VDT server and you have an external Condor installation that you would like to use in place of the Condor that is installed with VDT you can specify it by setting two environment variables described below before installing the VDT.
These variables must be defined at the time you install a package that relies on knowing where Condor is. This includes the following packages:
Defining the environment variables will produce the following effects:
$VDT_LOCATION/setup.* will set PATH, MANPATH,
CONDOR_LOCATION, CONDOR_CONFIG to point to the necessary
locations in your external Condor installation. (Note that these
are actually defined in vdt/etc/condor-env.*.)
/etc/xinetd.d/globus-gatekeeper)
and Globus condor jobmanager
($VDT_LOCATION/globus/lib/perl/Globus/GRAM/JobManager/condor.pm)
will be set up to submit jobs to your external Condor.
$VDT_LOCATION/globus/etc/grid-info-resource-ldif.conf)
will be setup to report information about the external Condor.
To specify an external Condor installation you need to set the following two environment variables before installing the VDT:
VDTSETUP_CONDOR_LOCATION: the location of
your Condor installation (e.g. /opt/condor). The Condor
bin/,
sbin/, etc/, lib/... directories should be
directly under this location.
VDTSETUP_CONDOR_CONFIG (optional): The location of your
Condor configuration file (if non-standard). Default is
$VDTSETUP_CONDOR_LOCATION/etc/condor_config.
For example, if Condor is installed in /usr/local/condor and the
condor_config file is in /usr/local/etc you could do:
In csh or tcsh:
setenv VDTSETUP_CONDOR_LOCATION /usr/local/condor setenv VDTSETUP_CONDOR_CONFIG /usr/local/etc/condor_configIn bash:
export VDTSETUP_CONDOR_LOCATION=/usr/local/condor export VDTSETUP_CONDOR_CONFIG=/usr/local/etc/condor_config
