Hi,

In ge, there is the ability to have the end-user set the number of running
jobs/tasks for a job array submission:

ex:

qsub -t 1-1000 -tc 20 ...

This allows users to play "nice" with other users especially for jobs
that are long-running....or under certain coonditions where running
too many jobs of a certain application may impact other users
ability to run jobs of the same app.

For normal jobs ( not job arrays ) is there a way for a particular user to
limit the number of his running jobs? Tokens can be used, but I was
hoping that there may be a submission parameter that would allow
users to do this themselves w/o having to set up a token-based limiting
method....

Thanks,

Ed
