Re: [Condor-users] maxidle for a dag with one node?

I do not believe processes of a cluster
are supported in DAGs, at least they are not on a Windows platform.

Hello list,

I have a job consisting of one cluster with several hundred thousand 
processes. The individual processes use $(Process) as an argument. I 
can't submit them all at once, so I made a DAG with one JOB node and 
tried to use condor_submit_dag's -maxidle throttling capability. 
According to the manual, each individual process counts as a job, so 
this matches what I want to do, but doesn't seem to work; the entire 
cluster is submitted regardless of what I set -maxidle to. I've also 
tried -maxjobs just in case, but that does what it says and throttles 
whole clusters, not the processes within.

Is there a way to throttle processes in a single-node DAG? I realize 
that I could split the cluster into many single-process clusters and use
-maxjobs, but then I wouldn't be able to use $(Process) anymore. Ideally
I'd like to avoid having to generate that many submit files.

Thanks!

Rob
