Re: [HTCondor-users] How to change default PRIORITY_HALFLIFE

[gagan tiwari <gagan.tiwari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

          ÂThanks for your email. I have been able to set it on a machine that runs the central manager by addingÂthe entry in the local.config file.Â

So, when I runÂ

[root@test1 ~]# condor_config_val ÂPRIORITY_HALFLIFE
21600

It shows the changed value.Â

But , running the same command on schedulerÂhost and executor hosts still shows the default value 86400.Â

[root@test2 ~]# condor_config_val PRIORITY_HALFLIFE
86400

I have restarted condor on them but still they show default value.Â

Do I need to change it on schedulerÂhost and executor hosts also by adding the same entry in their local.config file as I did on central manager host ?

Thanks,

Gagan

Hi Guys,

        We need to changeÂPRIORITY_HALFLIFEÂÂfrom default 24 hrs. to 6 hrs.

I tried it by running below on the master host , but it failed.

While you can set PRIORITY_HALFLIFE with condor_config_val, we would recommend that you set this statically in one of the condor config files. This way, you can put a comment above the setting, describing who set it, when you set it, and what it is doing. In the condor config directory on your machine that runs the central manager, add lines like

# 2/15/23 MyInitials -- lowering PRIORITY_HALFLIFE to xxx (6 hours) so that

# priorities have less history
PRIORITY_HALFLIFE = 21600
