We have a few over-zealous students on our subnet that will submit as many as 24 (!) simulations at once. I've explained to them why they should either nice their jobs or have crontab submit them in the wee hours, but they continue to submit numerous jobs during business hours. Does anyone have a method of automatically detecting when a user has more than x jobs running, then re- nicing them? Or a method that will renice all jobs after more than x total are running for ALL users... Thanks in Advance, Rich Sutton
