Description
condor_offshuts down a set of the HTCondor daemons running on a set of one or more machines. It does this
cleanly so that checkpointable jobs may gracefully exit with minimal loss of work.
The command condor_offwithout any arguments will shut down all daemons except condor_master. The
condor_mastercan then handle both local and remote requests to restart the other HTCondor daemons if need
be. To restart HTCondor running on a machine, see the condor_oncommand.
With the -daemon masteroption, condor_offwill shut down all daemons including the condor_master.
Specification using the -daemonoption will shut down only the specified daemon.
For security reasons of authentication and authorization, this command requires ADMINISTRATOR level of
access.
