What is the maximum number of jobs I can submit or have running at any one time?
“Eligible” and “Blocked” Queue Limits: We ask users not to exceed a maximum of 300 jobs in the “eligible” and “blocked” portions of the queue. This limit has proved to work well to keep the total number of jobs safely below 4,000, which is a scheduler software limitation. We will ask users to delete jobs from the queue if over the 300 job limit. “Active” Limits: There is a maximum of 300 CPUs in use at any one time per user. This number is summed from any combination of single and multi-processor jobs. Additional limits are placed as necessary for groups running either medium (defined as 4 to 7 days) or long (over 7 days) jobs on a regular basis if there usage is impacting the ability of other groups to use their full fairshare. Individual groups may also request upper limits on their users. New guest users have upper job limits until they have attended the Introduction to the Cluster and Job Scheduler classes. Please refer to the job scheduler policies for additional important details
