We've got a cluster set up based on the condo model.

We are using QOS to carve out chunks of the cluster for use by specific 
customers.

Each group of customers owns a QOS.  Each member of this group belongs to the 
"normal" QOS and also to one of these
privileged QOS's.

What we discovered today is that users are not limited to using their own QOS, 
but can in fact specify another QOS in their
sbatch scripts etc.

Now before anyone asks, the account for each user is configured to only have 
access to the normal QOS and a specifica privileged QOS.

sacctmgr show association format=user,account,qos,defaultqos

      User    Account                  QOS   Def QOS 
---------- ---------- -------------------- --------- 
 mkatic    arazdan       arazdan,normal   arazdan 

According to my understanding of the above, this user should only have access 
to the normal and arazdan QOS's.

Yet if I "su" to this account, I can launch jobs under other QOS's

Is there some configuration gotcha that I'm unaware of?

Thanks,
