- Do people do HTCondor glide-ins to slurm where the HTCondor jobs are not prempted, as a way to share resources with both schedulers?
- ANSWER: You can glide in to Slurm.
- You can have Slurm preempt HTCondor jobs in favor of its own jobs (HTCondor jobs presumably will be resubmitted)
- You can have HTCondor preempt Slurm jobs in the same sort of way.
Transfer Plugin Order
HTCondor guarantees that the condor file transfer happens before the plugin transfer, but only when using the "multi-file" plugin style,
like we have in our curl plugin. If you used the curl plugin as the model for rsync, you should be good.
AMQP
The AMQP gateway that we had developed was called Qpid, and worked by tailing the user job log and turning it into qpid events. I suspect
there's also ways to have condor plugins directly send amqp events as well.
