1.5 Availability
Condor is currently available as a free download from the Internet via the World Wide Web at
URL http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/downloads-v2.
Binary distributions of Condor are available for the platforms
detailed in Table 1.1. A platform is an
architecture/operating system combination.
Condor binaries are available for most major versions of Unix, as well as
Windows.
In the table, clipped means that Condor does not support
checkpointing or remote system calls on the given platform.
This means that standard jobs are not supported, only
vanilla jobs.
See section 2.4.1 on
page
for more details on job universes
within Condor and their abilities and limitations.
For 7.0.0 and later releases, the Condor source code is available for
public download alongside the binary distributions.
