NAME

       condor_qsub - minimalistic qsub emulation for Condor

SYNOPSIS

       condor_qsub [OPTIONS] [<command> [<command_args>]]

DESCRIPTION

       Minimalistic emulation of SGE's qsub for Condor.

       The  primary  purpose  of this emulation is to allow SGE-style submission of dependent jobs without the need to specify the full dependency
       graph at submission time. This implementation is neither as efficient as Condor's DAGMan, nor as functional as SGE's qsub/qalter. It merely
       serves as a minimal adaptor to be able to use software original written to interact with SGE in a Condor pool.

       In  general  condor_qsub behaves just like qsub. However, only a fraction of the original functionality is available. The following list of
       options only describes the differences in the behavior of SGE's qsub and this emulation.  Qsub options not listed here are not supported.

OPTIONS

       -b <y|n>

	      If 'y', command and arguments given on the command line are wrapped into a shell script which is then submitted to Condor.

       --condor-keep-files

	      This is a non-SGE option. If given, it will prevent condor_qsub from deleting temporary  files  (generated  submit  files,  sentinel
	      jobs). This is mostly useful for debugging.

       -cwd

	      If given, this option will cause the 'initialdir' value in the Condor submit file to be set to the current directory.

       -e <filename|path>

	      Name  of the file to contain the STDERR output of the job. By default this will be job_name.ejob_id[.task_id]. If an existing direc-
	      tory is specified, the file will be placed inside this directory using the default schema for the filename.

       -h,--help

	      Print usage summary and option list.

       -hold_jid <jid>

	      If given, the job will be submitted in 'hold' state. Along with the actual job a 'sentinel' job will be submitted to Condor's  local
	      universe.  This  sentinel  watches  the  specified  job  and releases the submitted job whenever the job has completed. The sentinel
	      observes SGE's behavior to detect job exiting with code 100 and not start depedent job in this case. If a cluster id of an array job
	      is given the dependent job will only be released after all individual jobs of a cluster have completed.

       -l <ressource spec>

	      This option is currently ignored.

       -m <a|e|n><...>

	      SGE's notification labels will be translated (approximately) into Condor's notifications states (Never, Error, Complete).

       -M <email>

	      Added as 'notify_user' to the submit file.

       -N <jobname>

	      Determines the default name of logfile (stdout, stderr).

       -o <filename|path>

	      See -e option, but for a job's stdout.

       -p <int>

	      Added a 'priority' to the submit file.

       -r <y|n>

	      This option is currently ignored.

       -S <shell>

	      Path to a shell binary for script execution.

       -shell <y|n>

	      This option is currently ignored.

       -t <start>[-<stop>[:<step>]]

	      Task ID specification for array job submissions.

       -q <queue name>

	      This option is permanently ignored, as Condor doesn't have multiple queues.

       -V

	      If given, 'getenv = True' is added to the submit file.

       --version

	      Print version information and exit.
