Re: [Condor-users] Limiting user stdout and stderr in condor jobs

[Alex Read <a.l.read@xxxxxxxxxx>]

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
