#619: launching jobs with simfactory without necessarily syncing the sources

     Type:  enhancement                  |      Status:  new     
 Priority:  optional                     |   Milestone:          
Component:  SimFactory                   |     Version:          
 Keywords:  simfactory remote directory  |  
-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 I would like to launch jobs on a remote machine with simfactory without
 necessarily syncing the sources. Therefore, my Cactus directory on the
 remote machine is not necessarily the one guessed by simfactory in the
 simfactory/mdb/machines/*.ini files. For example on damiana currently
 simfactory wants Cactus to be in /home/baiotti/damiana/Cactus while my
 Cactus is in /home/baiotti/Cactus. So currently I get the error:

 > simfactory/bin/sim --remote damiana submit test --configuration
 sim_damiana --parfile=~/test.par --walltime=48:00:00 --procs=36
 --queue=intel.q --num-threads=1
 Warning: could not resolve hostname mbaiotti2
 Warning: No xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.
 /home/baiotti/datura/Cactus: No such file or directory.

 Could it be possible to have more freedom in specifying the Cactus
 directory on the remote machine? For the time being I have modified
 locally the damiana.ini file.

 P.S.
 mbaiotti2 is the hostname of my laptop, from which I am sending the
 simfactory commands. I don't know why the above warning is printed
 (--verbose does not say more). I am using Version 1473M.
