Re: [HTCondor-users] max running jobs per user

Hi all,

Is there a way to limit the number of running jobs per user per schedd? Something like MAX_RUNNING_JOBS, but that sets the limit per user. Or something like group quotas, but again, per user.

I'm hesitant about MAX_JOBS_PER_OWNER, as if a user goes above that limit, then they would have to deal with the errors of a failed submission, etc. We don't mind if the jobs wait at the schedd.


Hi Ben:

Newer versions of HTCondor have submitter ceilings, which limit the number of running jobs per submitter, not per schedd, across all schedds that any one user may be submitting to. Is this sufficient?
