Hello HTCondor Experts, 

MaxJobsRunning parameter is to put a limit on running jobs for all users. I want to use this parameter to keep different value for one user. I tried this _expression_ but it doesn't work. 

MAX_JOBS_RUNNING = ifthenelse(regexp("vaggarwal",owner),10,60000)

Not working seems to be expected as per the following output.

    Hi Vikrant,
    
    One quick idea comes to mind:
    
    Starting with version 8.9.8 and above, HTCondor now supports setting
    an upper bound on the number of cores any individual user can be
    matched with pool-wide by the central manager.  This is called the
    submitter ceiling. The ceiling can be set with the condor_userprio
    -setceiling command line option.  See the man page for
    condor_userprio.
    
    regards
    Todd
