Re: [HTCondor-users] User prioritization

[Jesse Farnham <Jesse.Farnham@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Ben,

Thanks, this looks useful. Does HTCondor prioritize using a combination of the "accounting_group" and "accounting_group_user" attributes, or does it only prioritize with the "accounting_group" attribute? If the former, I'll require every user to submit with the same accounting group, and accounting_group_user equal to their user name. If the latter, I'll simply have every user set accounting_group to their username.

Jesse

Jesse,

It seems like accounting groups are what you want:
http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/v8.2/3_4User_Priorities.html#SECTION00447000000000000000

We have several customers who use service accounts to run jobs and control priorities, quotas, etc with accounting groups.


Thanks,
BC
