[HTCondor-users] how to get current 'fair share' quota/weight of a group?

[Thomas Hartmann <thomas.hartmann@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

on a user's question [1], I am currently looking for a ClassAd with the
current weighting/fair share quota of a given group?

I.e.,
we have several dynamic quota groups. If I remember correctly, by
default the resource usage over the last three days is taken into
account for weighting quotas.
So, I have been skimming, so far unsuccessfully, through
  -state
  -collector
looking for an ad with a flat value of the current quota.
But is there actually such a 'scalar' ad?

If not, I assume, that the quota is calculated by the collector each
negotiation cycle anew for any queued job with its resource requests
(including ConcurrencyLimits, ChildAccountingGroup,...)?
And if so, is there an 'easy' algorithm to calculate oneself the
collector's hypothetical current quota for a job against everybody else
being queued?

Cheers and thanks,
  Thomas

who would like to try to 'safe up' its fair share quota for some more
higher priority work load - which is from my point of view really *not*
a good approach, i.e., folding some oscillating behaviour into the
system,...
