[gridengine users] what time altering RQS act

Hi all, I set RQS to limit all slots per user to 240 with: ... limitusers {@phds} hosts @amds to slots=240 ... rkolson run his jobs and no problem. then rqs of rkolson should be altered, so RQS set to: ... limitusers rkolson hosts @amds to slots=500 limitusers {@phds} hos

with allocation rule fillup the scheduler tries to maximize the amount of slots which can be collected on any host. The host selection order depends usually *not* on the amount of free slots (anyway this could be configured). It looks like that you have either already some smaller jobs running on
