Looking at resource limits, I'd like to be able to set a maxjobs for a user on 
the cluster, regardless of which account they submit to.

When I do:

sacctmgr modify cluster felicia set maxjobs=20

It ends up setting the default association limit for all of the associations, 
so if a user belongs to multiple associations, they're allowed to run more than 
20 jobs by submitting them to the different associations.  What do I use to 
limit a user to a total of 20 jobs regardless of which associations they submit 
to?  Using sacctmgr modify user set maxjobs=XX works similar to the modify 
cluster, in that it changes the defaults for the individual user associations.

I thought about using a QOS for this and forcing jobs into the limiting QOS by 
default, but then it becomes difficult to make exceptions for users.  Any ideas 
that others have tried?
