Re: [HTCondor-users] Limit requested cpu cores and RAM

[mtwest2718 <mtwest2718@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

For us users working in python land, would this work?
>>> htcondor.params['NUM_CPUS'] = '6'

>>> htcondor.params['MEMORY'] = '2048'

>>> htcondor.reconfig()

I expect not, but am not sure what in the Interacting with Daemons tutorial is relevant to this task.

Cheers,

Matt

Hi!

 

Iâve been searching through the mailing list and documentation for this and canât seem to find it..

 

By default, the condor startd will advertise all the memory and all the cores that it discovers on the system.  To override this, you set

NUM_CPUS = some_number

or

MEMORY = some_amount_of_memory _in_megabytes

And the startd will advertise those amounts instead.
