- Introduction
-
- This directory contains two versions of Condor, the "beta test
- version", Condor_4.1.3b, and a previously released version
- called Condor_4.0. Please note that version 4.0 is quite old, and
- in particular will not compile on machines running SunOS4.1
- or later. The beta test is an upgrade from earlier beta
- testing, and should have most of the bugs worked out, (we hope).
- Anyone who wishes may join the beta test.
-
-
- If you want more information about condor, you can contact us.
- The email address is "condor-request@cs.wisc.edu" or
- "uwisc!condor-request". You may also call me (Mike Litzkow) at
- (608) 262-6122. If you would like me to send hard copies of
- the current condor documents, let me know. Otherwise I'll just
- add you to the mailing list so you'll be informed when patches or
- new versions become available.
-
- A mailing list is available for discussion of issues related to
- Condor which may be of general interest. Mail sent to
-
- condor-world@cs.wisc.edu
-
- will be reposted to the entire list.
- To join (or unjoin) the list, send your request to

- Files Available: (Remember to set binary before fetching these files.)
-
- Condor_4.0.0.tar.Z
- This is a compressed tar file of the latest version of the source
- tree. You will need to fetch the file and "uncompress" it. Then
- you should run "tar -xf Condor_4.0.0.tar CONDOR/doc" to extract the
- documents. Some of the documents contain gremlin pictures, but the
- ditroff ready versions are retained in the source for those sites
- which do not run gremlin. If you are unable to print the documents,
- contact me for a hard copy. You should read at least the "Technical
- Summary", and "Installation Guide" before attempting to make
- the software.
-
-
- Condor_4.1.3b.tar.Z
- This is a beta test version of Condor 4.1.
-
- The platforms supported by version 4.1.3b are:
- Sun 4, (SPARC) machines running SunOS 4.1 and 4.1.1
- DECstation 3100 and 5000 machines running Ultrix 4.2
- IBM R6000 series machines running AIX3.1
-
-
- Condor_4.1.hpsnake.alpha.tar.Z
- This is an alpha test version of Condor 4.1 for HP 700 series
- machines running HPUX 8.* The code is running in our local
- environment at Univ. of Wisc., but is largely untested. While
- this code has #ifdef's for other platforms, it is intended only
- for use on the HP's.
-
- Condor_4.1.irix.alpha.tar.Z
- This is an alpha test version of Condor 4.1 for Silicon Graphics
- machines running IRIX 4.* The code is running at two test
- sites, but we don't have machines to run it in our own department.
- While this code has #ifdef's for other platforms, it is intended
- only for use on the SGI's.
-
- Notes:
- 1. Please make a "condor" user and place a "CONDOR" directory
- in condor's home directory on your build machine. Extract
- the tar file there.
-
- 2. You will need to use "imake" in the build process. You
- should use the imake already on your system for this, don't
- build it from my source. I think you will find this in
- "/usr/bin/X11/imake". Imake will use "cpp" do part of its
- work. The particular version of cpp used can be altered by
- setting an environment variable called "IMAKECPP". The SGI
- supplied "cpp" is fine, so don't set this environment
- variable. The installation instructions tell you to set up an
- alias for "imake". Make sure you do that.
-
- 3. You will need to use a "make depend" program in the build
- process. Don't use the "makedepnd" supplied in the X
- distribution. Use the shell script in the CONDOR/GENERIC
- directory. You can do this by setting
- #define MkDepend $(TOP)/GENERIC/mdepend.sh in your
- "config/SGI_IRIX405.cf" file.
-
- 4. On SGI systems (and possibly others) you can use an environment
- variable (SHELL) to control which shell will be used by "make".
- The Condor Makefiles expect this to be the bourne shell "/bin/sh".
- Either "unsetenv" this variable or set it to /bin/sh during
- your Condor building.
