Synopsis

condor_ submit_dag [-no_submit] [-verbose] [-force] [-maxjobs NumberOfJobs] [-dagman DagmanExecutable] [-maxpre NumberOfPREscripts] [-maxpost NumberOfPOSTscripts] [-nopostfail] [-log LogFileName] [-notification value] DAGInputFile

Description

condor_ submit_dag is the program for submitting a DAG (directed acyclic graph) of jobs for execution under Condor. The program enforces the job dependencies defined in the DAGInputFile. The DAGInputFile contains commands to direct the submission of jobs implied by the nodes of a DAG to Condor. See the Condor User Manual, section 2.11 for a complete description.

Options

-no_submit

Produce the Condor submit description file for DAGMan, but do not submit DAGMan as a Condor job.

-verbose

Give verbose error messages.

-force

Require condor_ submit_dag to overwrite the files that it produces, if the files already exist.

-maxjobs NumberOfJobs

Sets the maximum number of jobs within the DAG that will be submitted to Condor at one time. NumberOfJobs is a positive integer. If the option is omitted, the default number of jobs is unlimited.

-dagman DagmanExecutable

Allows the specification of an alternate condor_ dagman executable to be used instead of the one found in the user's path. This must be a fully qualified path.

-maxpre NumberOfPREscripts

Sets the maximum number of PRE scripts within the DAG that may be running at one time. NumberOfPREScripts is a positive integer. If this option is omitted, the default number of PRE scripts is unlimited.

-maxpost NumberOfPOSTscripts

Sets the maximum number of POST scripts within the DAG that may be running at one time. NumberOfPOSTScripts is a positive integer. If this option is omitted, the default number of POST scripts is unlimited.

-nopostfail

An option applied to all nodes within the DAG that prevents the POST script within a node from running in the case that the job within the node fails. Without this option, POST scripts always run when jobs fail.

-log LogFileName

Forces condor_ submit_dag to omit the check of Condor submit description files for nodes within the DAG to verify that they all use the same log file. The argument LogFileName is used as the single, common log file.

-notification value

Sets the e-mail notification for DAGMan itself. This information will be used within the Condor submit description file for DAGMan. This file is produced by condor_ submit_dag. See notification within the section of submit description file commands in the condor_ submit manual page on page  for specification of value.
