Name
condor_ping Attempt - a security negotiation to determine if it succeeds
Synopsis
condor_ping [-help -version]
condor_ping[-debug] [-address <a.b.c.d:port>] [-pool host name] [-name daemon name] [-type subsystem]
[-config filename] [-quiet | -table | -verbose] token[token [... ]]
Description
condor_ping attempts a security negotiation to discover whether the configuration is set such that the
negotiation succeeds. The target of the negotiation is defined by one or a combination of the address,
pool, name, or typeoptions. If no target is specified, the default target is the condor_schedddaemon on
the local machine.
One or more tokens may be listed, thereby specifying one or more authorization level to impersonate in
security negotiation. A token is the value ALL , an authorization level, a command name, or the integer
value of a command. The many command names and their associated integer values will more likely be used
by experts, and they are defined in the file condor_includes/condor_commands.h .
An authorization level may be one of the following strings. If ALL is listed, then negotiation is
attempted for each of these possible authorization levels.
READ
WRITE
ADMINISTRATOR
SOAP
CONFIG
OWNER
DAEMON
NEGOTIATOR
ADVERTISE_MASTER
ADVERTISE_STARTD
ADVERTISE_SCHEDD
CLIENT
Options
-help
Display usage information
-version
Display version information
-debug
Print extra debugging information as the command executes.
-config filename
Attempt the negotiation based on the contents of the configuration file contents in file filename.
-address <a.b.c.d:port>
Target the given IP address with the negotiation attempt.
-pool hostname
Target the given hostwith the negotiation attempt. May be combined with specifications defined by
nameand typeoptions.
-name daemonname
Target the daemon given by daemonnamewith the negotiation attempt.
-type subsystem
Target the daemon identified by subsystem, one of the values of the predefined $(SUBSYSTEM) macro.
-quiet
Set exit status only; no output displayed.
-table
Output is displayed with one result per line, in a table format.
-verbose
Display all available output.
Examples
The example Unix command
condor_ping -address "<127.0.0.1:9618>" -table READ WRITE DAEMON
places double quote marks around the sinful string to prevent the less than and the greater than
characters from causing redirect of input and output. The given IP address is targeted with 3 attempts to
negotiate: one at the READ authorization level, one at the WRITE authorization level, and one at the
DAEMON authorization level.
Exit Status
condor_pingwill exit with the status value of the negotiation it attempted, where 0 (zero) indicates
success, and 1 (one) indicates failure. If multiple security negotiations were attempted, the exit status
will be the logical OR of all values.
