Re: [Condor-users] Throttling preemption

[Mag Gam <magawake@xxxxxxxxx>]

just curious, how does your wrapper script look like?

I have several awk scripts I would like to use checkpointing. They
take about 13 hours to finish but a checkpoint would be nice to have.

TIA

This works properly, but preempting multiple jobs simultaneously places a substantial load on our NFS server.  Is there any way to throttle the negotiator such that it only is allowed one preemption every 5 minutes or so?  I'm thinking maybe there is something additional I could place in PREEMPTION_REQUIREMENTS, but am coming up short.
