Resource Allocation Limits
Examples
For the following limit definitions:
Begin Limit
NAME = limit1
USERS = user1
PER_QUEUE = all
PER_HOST = hostA hostC
TMP = 30%
SWP = 50%
MEM = 10%
End Limit
Begin Limit
NAME = limit_ext1
PER_HOST = all
RESOURCE = ([user1_num,30] [hc_num,20])
End Limit
Begin Limit
NAME = limit2
QUEUES = short
JOBS = 200
End Limit
blimits
displays the following:

INTERNAL RESOURCE LIMITS:
NAME USERS QUEUES HOSTS PROJECTS SLOTS MEM TMP SWP JOBS
limit1 user1 q2 hostA@cluster1 - - 10/25 - 10/258 -
limit1 user1 q3 hostA@cluster1 - - - 30/2953 - -
limit1 user1 q4 hostC - - - 40/590 - -
limit2 - short - - - - - - 50/200
EXTERNAL RESOURCE LIMITS:
NAME USERS QUEUES HOSTS PROJECTS user1_num hc_num
limit_ext1 - - hostA@cluster1 - - 1/20
limit_ext1 - - hostC@cluster1 - 1/30 1/20
◆ In limit policy limit1, user1 submitting jobs to q2, q3, or q4 on hostA or
hostC is limited to 30% tmp space, 50% swap space, and 10% available memory.
No limits have been reached, so the jobs from
user1 should run. For example,
on
hostA for jobs from q2, 10 MB of memory are used from a 25 MB limit and
10 MB of swap space are used from a 258 MB limit.
