Re: [HTCondor-users] SYSTEM_PERIODIC_HOLD ignored

[David Cohen <cdavid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hooray!!

It's working now and job's running over time are evicted.

Now to my next project, holding jobs that after 30 minutes of run still don't use more than 10% of the requested memory:

WastingMemory = (JobStatus == 2 && (time() - JobCurrentStartExecutingDate) > 1800) && (RequestMemory > 8192) && (ResidentSetSize/1024 < RequestMemory/10)

I believe that thread gives me all the tools needed to manage that one.

Many thanks,

David

[SNIP]

I stumbled on a somehow survived job running for 21 days, so i forged a
clause to get it held and verify that it works:

TooMuchTime = (jobstatus == 2 && (time() - JobStartDate > 86400 * 7))

This clause works, but it only takes effect after condor restart:
condor_reconfig not enough.
