This is for sure a matter of discussion. One could also argue, that because of the E state the admin should take proper action and remove the condition which caused the error. After this, the job should get the priority it deserves to instantly. If it is a bigger problem, the admin could put the job on hold. And this puzzles me more: although the job is put on hold, it still keeps the priority it once got. For other waiting jobs it's working: attaching and removing the hold will recalculate the priority every time. -- Reuti > e.g. > > $ qstat -ext -s p | head -5 > job-ID prior ntckts name user project department > state cpu mem io tckts ovrts otckt ftckt stckt share queue > slots ja-task-ID > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > 1 0.50050 0.50000 job bob DEF defaultdep > Eqw 137170 0 0 0 137170 0.59 > 16 > 2 0.39808 0.39758 job sue DEF defaultdep qw > 46411 0 0 0 46411 0.06 > 50 > 3 0.34129 0.34079 job sue DEF defaultdep qw > 39781 0 0 0 39781 0.05 > 50 > > This means there are fewer tickets available for the scheduler to distribute > to other waiting jobs.
