Method Detail

initialize

void initialize(PegasusProperties properties,
                String path,
                String submitDir)

Initialize the POSTScript implementation.

Parameters:

properties - the PegasusProperties object containing all the properties required by Pegasus.

path - the path to the POSTScript on the submit host.

submitDir - the submit directory where the submit file for the job has to be generated.

construct

boolean construct(Job job,
                  String key)

Constructs the postscript that has to be invoked on the submit host after the job has executed on the remote end. The postscript usually works on the output generated by the executable that is used to grid enable a job, and has been piped back by Condor.

The postscript should be constructed and populated as a profile in the DAGMAN namespace.

Parameters:

job - the Job object containing the job description of the job that has to be enabled on the grid.

key - the DAGMan profile key that has to be inserted.

Returns:

boolean true if postscript was generated,else false.

shortDescribe
