Re: [HTCondor-users] Limit number of submissions in a service account env

[Seung-Jin Sul <ssul@xxxxxxx>]

Hi

So if I haveÂ

```

GROUP_QUOTA_group_A     = 50

```

in the server configuration and Tom adds this line in his submission job script

```

AccountingGroup = "group_A.tom"

```

And Jerry puts this

```

AccountingGroup = "group_A.jerry"

```

, both of them will be restricted to a total of 50 job submissions?

Thank you!

Hi,

I think the MAX_JOBS_PER_OWNER classadd will assume that the owner is the one mentioned in the job classadd as 'Owner' which in your case is the generic owner.

You could write a transform on the sched and adjust the 'Owner' part of the job according to what you think the real owner is but that is a bit of a weird thing todo and unnecessarily complicated I guess.

In case you manage to put the accountinggroups in place as you mention you could work with the other accountingtools in order to restrict at least the number of running jobs of a certain user easily:

GROUP_QUOTA_group_tom = 20

best

Betreff: [HTCondor-users] Limit number of submissions in a service accountÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂenv

Hi,Â

In our env, via a job management system, multiple usersÂare submitting jobs to HTCondor. Since there is only one service account managing the job management system, all HTCondor jobs will be submitted under the same account name.
Is it possible to restrict the max number ofÂsubmissions per user? I've read in a document that we can override the submitter's account name by using `accounting_group_user`.

My question is if we set this in the submission file,Â

```

accounting_group_user = tom

```

and if the HTCondor server is configured usingÂ

```

MAX_JOBS_SUBMITTED = 10000

MAX_JOBS_PER_OWNER = 100


```




, will it be guaranteed that the user `tom` will be limited to submit jobs only 100 max?

Thank you!

Seung-Jin
