💖 condor_submit_makeflow — bestie edition 💖

okay so you're in the Cooperative Computing Tools manual, section 1, and this page is all about condor_submit_makeflow. sit down, hydrate, let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

condor_submit_makeflow — submit workflow to HTCondor batch system

like. that's the whole vibe. you got a workflow, you want HTCondor to babysit it instead of you. slay.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

condor_submit_makeflow [options] <workflow>

that's it. options in, workflow in. periodt.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea, bestie: condor_submit_makeflow submits Makeflow itself as a batch job. yes, Makeflow, the whole thing, as a job. that way HTCondor monitors and controls it for you, and you do not need to stay logged in while your workflow runs. go touch grass. take a nap. the cluster has it 💅

and the best part? all options given to condor_submit_makeflow are passed along to the underlying Makeflow. no weird middleman behaviour. you say it, Makeflow hears it. iykyk.

---

💀 EXIT STATUS 💀

• success → returns zero ✅
• failure → returns non-zero 💀

that's the whole deal. no in-between, no "maybe", just numbers being honest with you.

🎀 EXAMPLE 🎀

condor_submit_makeflow example.mf

and then the universe replies with:

Submitting example.mf as a background job to HTCondor...
Submitting job(s).
1 job(s) submitted to cluster 364.
Makeflow Output : makeflow.364.output
Makeflow Error  : makeflow.364.error
Condor Log      : makeflow.364.condorlog

look at that output. cluster 364. iconic. and it literally hands you your three little files — the Makeflow Output, the Makeflow Error, and the Condor Log — so you know exactly where to go snooping later 👑✨
