Pkg-Description: workload management system
Like other full-featured batch systems, Condor provides a job queueing
mechanism, scheduling policy, priority scheme, resource monitoring, and
resource management. Users submit their serial or parallel jobs to Condor,
Condor places them into a queue. It chooses when and where to run the jobs
based upon a policy, carefully monitors their progress, and ultimately
informs the user upon completion.
.
Unlike more traditional batch queueing system, Condor can also effectively
harness wasted CPU power from otherwise idle desktop workstations. Condor
does not require a shared file system across machines - if no shared file
system is available, Condor can transfer the job's data files on behalf of
the user.
