12 This daemon is responsible for keeping all the rest of the Condor dae‐
13 mons running on each machine in your pool. It spawns the other daemons,
14 and periodically checks to see if there are new binaries installed for
15 any of them. If there are, the condor_master will restart the affected
16 daemons. In addition, if any daemon crashes, the condor_master will
17 send e-mail to the Condor Administrator of your pool and restart the
18 daemon. The condor_master also supports various administrative commands
19 that let you start, stop or reconfigure daemons remotely. The con‐
20 dor_master will run on every machine in your Condor pool, regardless of
21 what functions each machine are performing.

23 Section in the Administrator's Manual has more information about the
24 condor_master and other Condor daemons. See Section for documentation
25 on command line arguments for condor_master .

27 The DAEMON_LISTconfiguration macro is used by the condor_master to pro‐
28 vide a per-machine list of daemons that should be started and kept run‐
29 ning. For daemons that are specified in the DC_DAEMON_LISTconfiguration
30 macro, the condor_master daemon will spawn them automatically appending
31 a -f argument. For those listed in DAEMON_LIST, but not in DC_DAE‐
32 MON_LIST, there will be no -f argument.
