- Is there a config option that will cause condor to not start? We have diskless nodes and it is easier to modify the config file then change systemd.
- START_DAEMONS defaults to True but if it is false the master starts but nothing else.
- START_MASTER may also work
- Torque has this command called pbsnodes that can not only offline/drain a node but keeps a note about it that all can see in one place. I know I can use condor_off to drain a node but is there a central place keep notes so I can remember a month later why I set a certain node to drain?
- ANSWER: there is no place to keep such notes.
- May want to use condor_drain instead of condor_off. condor_off will kill the startd when all jobs finish and it no longer shows up in condor_status. condor_drain will leave the node in condor_status.
