[NLPL Task Force (A)] [uninett.no #224349] Re: Too many jobs on Saga

[nikolaiv@uio.no via RT]

HI, Stephan,

There are no limits (quotas) on number of concurrent jobs run by a single user
on SAGA. So, you must set your own limits :)

    thanks for the courtesy copy, thomas, and for freeing up the queue!
     
    on the pre-Saga systems, there used to be a limit on the number of jobs a
    user could have in the queue, 200 maybe.  it sounds as if Saga does not
    impose such a limit (currently)?
     
    artur, i once wrote a script to ‘trickle’ very long lists of jobs through
    the scheduler, while keeping my count of jobs in the queue below some
    limit at all times:

        Hei Artur,

          you have too many jobs submitted on Saga. It prevents the scheduler
        from accepting more jobs.

        I’ll scancel your jobs, because we have a course tomorrow and it’s
        currently impossible to submit jobs - hence Saga wouldn’t be usable
        during the course.

        Please, don’t submit so many individual jobs. You could execute
        multiple ones sequentially in a single job script or use array jobs.

        Sorry for the inconvenience

        Thomas
