[Condor-users] How to make condor_userprio changes "stick"

["Ian Chesal" <ICHESAL@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Right now if I change the user priorities of my active users using the
condor_userprio -setprio command, on the next negotiation cycle the
priorities are reset to the condor-calculated values. How can I make my
forced settings stick? As an example, I force all my user priorities
into the following slightly ridiculous configuration:

[root@ttc-condorsrv log]# condor_userprio
Last Priority Update:  3/8  17:38
                                    Effective
User Name                           Priority
------------------------------      ---------

But two minutes later, when a negotiation cycle starts, everything is
reset to the condor-calculated values:

[root@ttc-condorsrv log]# condor_userprio
Last Priority Update:  3/8  17:40
                                    Effective

I've tried setting PRIORITY_FACTOR to be really big but that didn't make
a difference.
