Thanks for all the feedback, am going with Juergens MaxSubmitJobs approach.

We have a QOS called "batchdisable" which has MaxJobs=0 and 
MaxSubmitJobs=0 and then we just set the user's list of QOS's to that.


sacctmgr update where where name=bar qos=batchdisable

All the best,

Hi,

I think setting MaxSubmitJobs=0 for the association should also do the
trick if you don't want to code something special in the submit.lua 
script. E.g. for a single user: 

  sacctmgr update user  set maxsubmitjobs=0

Setting MaxSubmitJobs=-1 will then release this limit. 

Best regards
Jürgen

Re: [slurm-users] is there a way to temporarily freeze an account?

2021-10-06 Thread Thomas M. Payerle
There are a lot of parameters controlling the resources which an account
and/or user can use.  I suspect your default setup only uses a few of
them.  To temporarily disable an account, you can apply a setting which is
disjoint from your normal methods.

E.g., if you normally set GrpTresMins to limit usage on an account to a
certain level, you might be able to temporarily set GrpJobs or
GrpSubmitJobs to 0 to disable the account from running/submitting
additional jobs.  This should not affect the TRES numbers, so can just
remove the GrpJobs/GrpSubmitJobs restrictions when you wish to re-enable.

[slurm-users] is there a way to temporarily freeze an account?

2021-10-06 Thread byron
We have some accounts that we would like to suspend / freeze for the time
being that have unused hours associated with them.  Is there anyway of
doing this without removing the users associated with the accounts or
zeroing their hours?

We are using slurm version 19.05.7

Thanks
