Description
condor_token_request_auto_approve will install a temporary auto-approval rule for token requests. Any
token request matching the auto-approval rule will be immediately approved instead of requiring
administrator approval
Automatic request approval is intended to help administrators initially setup their cluster. To install
a new rule, you must specify both a network and a lifetime; requests are only approved if they come from
that given source network, are within the rule lifetime, are limited to ADVERTISE_SCHEDD or
ADVERTISE_STARTD permissions, and are for the condor identity. When a condor_startd or condor_schedd is
started and cannot communicate with the collector, they will automatically generate token requests that
meet the last two conditions.
It is not safe to enable auto-approval when users have access to any of the involved hosts or networks.
To remove auto-approval rules, run condor_reconfig against the remote daemon.:
By default, condor_token_request_auto_approve will install rules at the local condor_collector; by
specifying a combination of -pool, -name, or -type, the tool can request tokens in other pools, on other
hosts, or different daemon types.
Examples
To automatically approve token requests to the default condor_collector coming from the 10.0.0.0/26
subnet for the next 10 minutes:
$ condor_token_request_auto_approve -lifetime 600 -netblock 10.0.0.0/26
Successfully installed auto-approval rule for netblock 10.0.0.0/26 with lifetime of 0.17 hours
Remote daemon reports no un-approved requests pending.
Exit Status
condor_token_request_auto_approve will exit with a non-zero status value if it fails to communicate with
the remote daemon or has insufficient authorization. Otherwise, it will exit 0.

Options
-debug Causes debugging information to be sent to stderr, based on the value of the configuration
variable TOOL_DEBUG.
-help Display brief usage information and exit.
-lifetimevalue
Specify the lifetime, in seconds, for the auto-request rule to be valid.
-namehostname
Request a token from the daemon named hostname in the pool. If not specified, the
locally-running daemons will be used.
-netblocknetwork
A netblock of the form IP_ADDRESS/SUBNET_MASK specifying the source of authorized requests.
Examples may include 129.93.12.0/24 or 10.0.0.0/26.
-poolpool_name
Request a token from a daemon in a non-default pool pool_name.
-typetype
Request a token from a specific daemon type type. If not given, a condor_collector is used.
