Hi,
For reference - here is what I have configured and tested: ( Until this gets
implemented - wink, wink, Univa....)
ex submission: ( also works for job arrays....of course )
qsub -t 1-100 -cwd -V -b y -l slots10=10 sleep 120
This will provide the user the ability to limit how many jobs they want to run
using predrfined
limits...
complex definitions....
slots10 s10 INT <= YES YES 0 0
slots100 s100 INT <= YES YES 0 0
slots20 s20 INT <= YES YES 0 0
slots50 s50 INT <= YES YES 0 0
global host def:
hostname global
load_scaling NONE
complex_values slots10=100000,slots100=100000, \
slots20=100000,slots50=100000
load_values NONE
processors 0
user_lists NONE
xuser_lists NONE
projects NONE
xprojects NONE
usage_scaling NONE
report_variables NONE
resource quota sets:
{
name per_user_10_job_limit
description allows user to select slot limit to throttle number of running \
jobs
enabled TRUE
limit users {*} to slots10=10
}
{
name per_user_20_job_limit
description allows user to select slot limit to throttle number of running \
jobs
enabled TRUE
limit users {*} to slots20=20
}
{
name per_user_50_job_limit
description allows user to select slot limit to throttle number of running \
jobs

limit users {*} to slots50=50
}
{
name per_user_100_job_limit
description allows user to select slot limit to throttle number of running \
jobs
enabled TRUE
limit users {*} to slots100=100
}
Thanks,
Ed

What could be done to help the users: they could specify the intended number in
a file like "~/.sge_jobs".
A cronjob could read all the values and modify the RQS for this user.
The syntax is :$ qconf -mattr resource_quota limit slots=50 general/reutifor a
lines:name generallimit name reuti users reuti to slots=50
Resp. doing it on a per job bases with a complex "jobs" consumable as per JOB.
