Re: [Condor-users] Splitting/prioritizing the resources for distinct users

[Alan Malta <alanmalta@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

for sure the best approach is using the group quotas (GROUP_QUOTA_), where I can separate an amount of slots to each group, as well as using autoregroup (GROUP_AUTOREGROUP_) configuration, which enables a group exceed its number of slots.

The problem here is that all users need change the submit file, saying what is the "AccountingGroup", in order to the job be scheduled properly. But, unfortunately, I can't do that, because there are thousands of submitters running jobs on the grid and no one knows in which cluster it will run.

Is there a workaround for that? Does anyone have another tip?
Best,
Alan.

Hi Lukas and all,

I'll take a look on these pages and after that I'll give you a feedback (despite I guess that I read already the second link, and it needs an extra argument in the submit file, if I'm not mistaken...).

Thanks,
Alan.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is exactly what you need, but try to look at the following
links: https://condor-wiki.cs.wisc.edu/index.cgi/wiki?p=HowToConfigPrioritiesForUsers
or take a look to condor manual "Group Accounting", "Group Quotas" http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.2/3_4User_Priorities.html#SECTION00447000000000000000

I think it help you.
