[Condor-users] limiting memory use of condor jobs

[Hans Wenzel <wenzel@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear all


Is there a way  to periodic_remove a Job once the memory use is above 
some threshold?
like it is done in the diskusage example below?

thanks in advance

Hans


In the job requirements
+JobDiskLimit = 10000
periodic_remove = DiskUsage > JobDiskLimit
should prevent the job from using more than e.g. 10 MB in
the session directory. I wouldn't know how to get Condor to
enforce this for a particular file - you would probably have to
build a command wrapper and check the file size in a separate
process if this is important.

Cheers, Alex
