At the moment my users don't set the TimeLimit, because they don't know how long their jobs will take. If I check with sacct -o TimeLimit, I get : Timelimit ---------- 365-00:00+ Is not setting a TimeLimit a bad thing with this configuration? Do you know how I can instruct the backfill scheduler NOT to run smaller jobs before my high priority job? Because what's happening right now is that all my high priority jobs are held in "PD" state, and low-priority jobs are still run. Many thanks!
