As the names imply, condor_installis intended to perform a Condor installation, and condor_configureis intended to configure (or reconfigure) an existing installation. Both will run with Perl 5.6.0 or more recent versions. .P condor_configure(and condor_install) are designed to be run more than one time where required. It can install Condor when invoked with a correct configuration via .P .br condor_install .P or .P .br condor_configure --install .P or, it can change the configuration files when invoked via .P .br condor_configure .P Note that changes in the configuration files do not result in changes while Condor is running. To effect changes while Condor is running, it is necessary to further use the condor_reconfigor condor_restartcommand. condor_reconfigis required where the currently executing daemons need to be informed of configuration changes. condor_restartis required where the options -- make-personal-condoror -- typeare used, since these affect which daemons are running. .P Running condor_configureor condor_installwith no options results in a usage screen being printed. The -- helpoption can be used to display a full help screen. .P Within the options given below, the phrase release directoriesis the list of directories that are released with Condor. This list includes: bin , etc , examples , include , lib , libexec , man , sbin , sql and src . .P .SH Options .P .B --help .IP "" 3 Print help screen and exit .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --install .IP "" 3 Perform installation, assuming that the current working directory contains the release directories. Without further options, the configuration is that of a Personal Condor, a complete one-machine pool. If used as an upgrade within an existing installation directory, existing configuration files and local directory are preserved. This is the default behavior of condor_install. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --install-dir= .IP "" 3 Specifies the path where Condor should be installed or the path where it already is installed. The default is the current working directory. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --prefix= .IP "" 3 This is an alias for -install-dir. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --local-dir= .IP "" 3 Specifies the location of the local directory, which is the directory that generally contains the local (machine-specific) configuration file as well as the directories where Condor daemons write their run-time information ( spool , log , execute ). This location is indicated by the LOCAL_DIR variable in the configuration file. When installing (that is, if -installis specified), condor_configure will properly create the local directory in the location specified. If none is specified, the default value is given by the evaluation of $(RELEASE_DIR)/local.$(HOSTNAME) . .IP "" 3 During subsequent invocations of condor_configure (that is, without the --install option), if the --local-dir option is specified, the new directory will be created and the log , spool and execute directories will be moved there from their current location. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --make-personal-condor .IP "" 3 Installs and configures for Personal Condor, a fully-functional, one-machine pool. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --type= .IP "" 3 One or more of the types may be listed. This determines the roles that a machine may play in a pool. In general, any machine can be a submit and/or execute machine, and there is one central manager per pool. In the case of a Personal Condor, the machine fulfills all three of these roles. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --central-manager= .IP "" 3 Instructs the current Condor installation to use the specified machine as the central manager. This modifies the configuration variable COLLECTOR_HOST to point to the given host name). The central manager machine's Condor configuration needs to be independently configured to act as a manager using the option -type=manager. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --owner= .IP "" 3 Set configuration such that Condor daemons will be executed as the given owner. This modifies the ownership on the log , spool and execute directories and sets the CONDOR_IDS value in the configuration file, to ensure that Condor daemons start up as the specified effective user. See section 3.6.13on UIDs in Condor on page for details. This is only applicable when condor_configure is run by root. If not run as root, the owner is the user running the condor_configure command. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B -overwrite .IP "" 3 Always overwrite the contents of the sbin directory in the installation directory. By default, condor_installwill not install if it finds an existing sbin directory with Condor programs in it. In this case, condor_installwill exit with an error message. Specify -overwriteor -backupto tell condor_installwhat to do. .IP "" 3 This prevents condor_installfrom moving an sbin directory out of the way that it should not move. This is particularly useful when trying to install Condor in a location used by other things ( /usr , /usr/local , etc.) For example: condor_install-prefix=/usrwill not move /usr/sbin out of the way unless you specify the -backupoption. .IP "" 3 The -backupbehavior is used to prevent condor_installfrom overwriting running daemons - Unix semantics will keep the existing binaries running, even if they have been moved to a new directory. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --backup .IP "" 3 Always backup the sbin directory in the installation directory. By default, condor_installwill not install if it finds an existing sbin directory with Condor programs in it. In this case, condor_installwith exit with an error message. You must specify -overwriteor -backupto tell condor_installwhat to do. .IP "" 3 This prevents condor_installfrom moving an sbin directory out of the way that it should not move. This is particularly useful if you're trying to install Condor in a location used by other things ( /usr , /usr/local , etc.) For example: condor_install-prefix=/usrwill not move /usr/sbin out of the way unless you specify the -backupoption. .IP "" 3 The -backupbehavior is used to prevent condor_installfrom overwriting running daemons - Unix semantics will keep the existing binaries running, even if they have been moved to a new directory. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --ignore-missing-libs .IP "" 3 Ignore missing shared libraries that are detected by condor_install. By default, condor_installwill detect missing shared libraries such as libstdc++.so.5 on Linux; it will print messages and exit if missing libraries are detected. The --ignore-missing-libswill cause condor_installto not exit, and to proceed with the installation if missing libraries are detected. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --force .IP "" 3 This is equivalent to enabling both the --overwriteand --ignore-missing-libscommand line options. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --no-env-scripts .IP "" 3 By default, condor_configure writes simple sh and csh shell scripts which can be sourced by their respective shells to set the user's PATH and CONDOR_CONFIG environment variables. This option prevents condor_configure from generating these scripts. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --env-scripts-dir= .IP "" 3 By default, the simple shand cshshell scripts (see --no-env-scriptsfor details) are created in the root directory of the Condor installation. This option causes condor_configure to generate these scripts in the specified directory. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --make-personal-stork .IP "" 3 Creates a Personal Stork, using the condor_credddaemon. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --stork .IP "" 3 Configures the Stork data placement server. Use this option with the --creddoption. .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --credd .IP "" 3 Configure the the condor_credddaemon (credential manager daemon). .IP "" 3 .IP "" 3 .P .B --verbose .IP "" 3 Print information about changes to configuration variables as they occur. .IP "" 3 .P .SH Exit Status .P condor_configurewill exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit with a nonzero value upon failure. .P .SH Examples Install Condor on the machine (machine1@cs.wisc.edu) to be the pool's central manager. On machine1, within the directory that contains the unzipped Condor distribution directories: .P .br % condor_install --type=submit,execute,manager .P This will allow the machine to submit and execute Condor jobs, in addition to being the central manager of the pool. .P To change the configuration such that machine2@cs.wisc.edu is an execute-only machine (that is, a dedicated computing node) within a pool with central manager on machine1@cs.wisc.edu, issue the command on that machine2@cs.wisc.edu from within the directory where Condor is installed: .P .br % condor_configure --central-manager=machine1@cs.wisc.edu --type=execute .P To change the location of the LOCAL_DIR directory in the configuration file, do (from the directory where Condor is installed): .P .br % condor_configure --local-dir=/path/to/new/local/directory .P This will move the log , spool , execute directories to /path/to/new/local/directory from the current local directory. .P .SH Author Condor Team, University of Wisconsin-Madison .SH Copyright Copyright (C) 1990-2012 Condor Team, Computer Sciences Department, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI.
