This group of configuration variables describe file locations
which are written by the submit system during operation.
Some are initialized by the installation script, which will
make sure all the directories along the path exist, and that
permissions are correct.
HOME_AREA |
In Makefile |
|
|
|
This is the directory under which normal user home directories
exist, usually /home .
The submit system does not store anything here directly,
but uses the user home areas within HOME_AREA .
|
|
|
SUBMISSION_AREA |
In Makefile |
|
|
|
This is the directory under the user's home area where
assignments and submitted
files are stored. For user u, assignments are created under
HOME_AREA /u/SUBMISSION_AREA .
|
|
|
LOGFILE |
In submit.conf |
|
|
|
The path of the submit system log file. It must be writable by
the web user process. Since the log file is written by appending,
if you change this value in submit.conf , log messages will be
appended to the existing content. If that is not what you wanted,
truncate the file.
|
|
|
SESSDB |
In submit.conf |
|
|
|
The path of of the submit system session database. The system records
current logins here. It is a binary file. If you change this value in
submit.conf , the new path should be either nonexistent or
an empty file, and writable by the web server process.
|
|
|
SUBVAR |
In submit.conf |
|
|
CONF_CACHE_LOC |
In submit.conf |
|
|
|
The submit system builds a cache of its current configuration to
avoid having to parse the file each time. When it builds a new
cache file, it creates a temporary file in the directory given by
SUBVAR , writes the contents, then moves it to CONF_CACHE_LOC ,
which must be under SUBVAR .
