[HTCondor-users] Help needed with a time of day policy

[Roderick Johnstone <rmj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I've been through chapter 3.5  of the manual a few times and still can't 
quite figure out how to achieve the following:

I'd like jobs to only run after office hours on some systems.

If there is a job already running then it should be suspended if its had 
more than a certain amount of CPU time so that it can resume later and 
this time is not wasted, but killed if its only had a small amount of 
CPU time so that it can try to run again (or resume, if checkpointable) 
somewhere else.

Section 3.5.9.3 looks like a good start, but I'm a bit lost in the maze 
of START, *SUSPEND, *VACATE, PREEMPT and CONTINUE possibilities.

Can someone advise please?

Thanks

Roderick Johnstone
