Dear Experts,

Requirements = madgraph=?=True

Hi Richard,

This means that you can submit on the node were the variable madgraph
is set on True.
This is a common way to split the cluster in sub-cluster. (and this is
how some of our cluster are configured).

This is off course purely optional and follows the argument queues
defines in the configuration files
(input/mg5_configuration.txt or ./Cards/me5_configuration.txt)

# Cluster Type [pbs|sge|condor] Use for cluster run only
# And cluster queue
cluster_type = condor
cluster_queue = madgraph

If you don't need such type of requirements on your cluster you can use:
# Cluster Type [pbs|sge|condor] Use for cluster run only
# And cluster queue
cluster_type = condor
cluster_queue = None

Then you will not have such line in your submission file.

Cheers,

Olivier
