Hi all,

This is a more general question, really, but what is the best way to assign a 
default h_rt resource request to jobs? 

I want to be able to set h_rt request default to INFINITY in order to get the 
scheduler to segregate "long" jobs from "short" jobs.  My short.q will have a 
fixed attribute of 30 minutes (and I want it to be accessible only by jobs 
which are requested to be < 30mins), while the long.q will have a fixed 
attribute of infinity and will be available to all jobs.  That way, I can keep 
back two execution nodes for my short queue to improve availability.

At the moment, I have:

1. an enforced requestable (fixed attribute, not consumable) for h_rt in the 
complex, 
2. h_rt given 30mins in the complex section of the queue config,
3. A limit of 30mins configured for Wall Time in the same queue,
3. -l h_rt=INFINITY in sge_request file.  

Is that the best way?

Thanks,

Chris
