It's obvious now that I can (for example) build wavetoy, static_tov, and ks-mclachlan at once, and run instances of each independently. But what about maintaining the source trees -- do I need to rebuild the name? Can I check if there are updates to a particular configuration's source tree? Is there any consistency enforced between configurations used on a local host and remote build (i.e., if I want to be sure I use the same code tag on each of many target clusters)? </div><div><br></div><div>-Richard</div><div>PS: On a related note, are there submission scripts for condor's parallel universe?</div><div><br><div><div>On Oct 15, 2010, at 3:58 PM, Erik Schnetter wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div>Richard<br><br>You created a configuration with the non-default name "static_tov".<br>(The default name would be "sim").
