Rather than have the jobs come out of suspension and try to detect if there is anything queued for the "daily use" queue [1] it might be better to add a "suspend threshold" to the regression queue that keeps the queue suspended if there is anything waiting for "daily use". William [1] All batch schedulers have something called a queue that isn't. Gridengine queues are particularly unqueue like. _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@gridengine.org https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
