Description
condor_tail displays the last bytes of a file in the sandbox of a
running job identified by the command line argument job-ID. stdout
is tailed by default. The number of bytes displayed is limited to 1024,
unless changed by specifying the -maxbytes option. This limit is
applied for each individual tail of a file; for example, when following
a file, the limit is applied each subsequent time output is obtained.
If you specify filename, that name must be specifically listed in the job’s
transfer_output_files.
