Hello,

Is it possibly to dynamically adjust job priority based on the amount of running jobs for a specific user?

Example:

 All jobs have default priority of 100.

User A has 2 jobs running and one job queued. The queued job receives -2 priority because this User A already has 2 jobs running.


Maui does not have this possibility. If you want to take into consideration the resources used by running jobs, your best bet is to use the FS component (fairshare usage). You will have to use one or several of the subcomponents FSUSER, FSGROUP, FSACCOUNT, FSQOS and FSCLASS. You could also use the USAGE component (subcomponents CONSUMED, REMAINING, PERCENT or EXECUTIONTIME).

See page http://docs.adaptivecomputing.com/maui/5.1.2priorityfactors.php for more details.

Moab has a subcomponent (or subfactor) of FS called FSJPU (current active jobs associated with job user) that seems to be what you want, but Maui does not have it.
