Hi Dave, Reuti and all thanks for your responses. The documentation I have access to is several PDF downloaded from Oracle site (like Oracle Grid Engine - Administration Guide 6.2.7 (august 2011)). I will have a look to the gridengine.info site (when it will be back since it seems down for now). I had a look to the Ticket Policy Hierarchy that was set to OSF. I can have a try with NONE. My situation is the following: 1/ I submitted several job to the grid. Some of those jobs falled in the queue with priority 0.550 2/ Another user (that submit lot and lot of jobs for several weeks) submitted several other jobs (more that me). His jobs got the 0.650 priority and were all queued imediatly before mine. I did not change anything to the policies. My configuration uses $pe_slots rule for PE and three customized consumable parameters each job must declare to give an estimation of its resource consumption.
In our group we would prefer to have a First In First Out policy of, if possible since we did not determine a better one for the moment (In fact, I think about a policy that would allow user jobs to acquire a priority inverse proportional to the number of the jobs of this user in the queue, in order to have a single user job run before a long long list of job of an other user... but that's an other story). Do you have any idea about the behavior I observed? Thanks a lot Lionel ________________________________________ De : Reuti [[email protected]] Date d'envoi : mardi 25 septembre 2012 23:51 À : Dave Love Cc : Lionel SPINELLI; [email protected] Objet : Re: [gridengine users] Old user priority Am 25.09.2012 um 16:46 schrieb Dave Love: > Lionel SPINELLI <[email protected]> writes: > >> Hello all, >> >> I have an issue on user priority and would like to get advise from >> experts if possible.

The jobs are standing in the queue for a long time? weight_waiting_time can be adjusted in the scheduler configuration. With doc you mean "Resource Allocation Overview" on gridengine.info or any other reference? The default order for policy_hierarchy is OFS and you set it to NONE like the mentioned doc specified indirectly? -- Reuti >> I would like >> to remove this option and have job submitted by user get the same >> priority.
