Re: [Condor-users] Max. amount of Jobs in queue

["Matt Hope" <Matt.Hope@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On the 6.8 series the limit is more like 15K (and slightly lower on XP
verses a server based install).

Hopefully you're on a seven series so the 150K sounds reasonable.

Have a look at job priorities...

http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.3/2_7Priorities_Preemption.html#
SECTION00371000000000000000

And, man condor_submit (search for "priority = <integer>"

The Schedd has a default limit of *running* 200 jobs at a time, but that
won't effect you until you have >200 slots available. A single Schedd
should not have much problem with 150K submitted jobs. Are there
specific concerns?

Best,


matt
