Aha, using projects but ignoring them for the scheduling. I must admit that I never used such a setup. There is also the option "-A account_string" to `qsub` where you can supply a string which can be accessed later on. It's also recorded in the accounting file and handled like a comment regarding scheduling, but can also be used in `qacct`. Do you also want to control who submits jobs to which projects? It would be necessary to put it in a JSV then. -- Reuti > but would like each user to get a roughly equal share of resources in the > long term, regardless of which project they use (i.e. I'd like the share tree > to ignore the projects and just work with users).
