Hi Ian,

Thanks, I will start from what you've suggested and let you know how it
goes. One thing I am unclear on, by current run you mean a job that has
been held and then restarted?

Yes. RemoteWallClockTime, RemoteSysCpu and RemoteUserCpu all accumulate over runs. So if a job bounces around from machine to machine, gets vacated or held, then released, these numbers just keep going up. So they track more than just the current running instance of the job. But they're probably good enough given your 1 hour versus 60 second rule.

Regards,
