NAME
condor_prio - HTCondor Manual
change priority of jobs in the HTCondor queue
SYNOPSIS
condor_prio -p priority | +value | -value [-n schedd_name] [username | ClusterId ]
DESCRIPTION
condor_prio changes the priority of one or more jobs in the HTCondor queue. If the job identification is
given by cluster.process, condor_prio attempts to change the priority of the single job with job ClassAd
attributes ClusterId and ProcId. If described by cluster, condor_prio attempts to change the priority of
all processes with the given ClusterId job ClassAd attribute. If username is specified, condor_prio
attempts to change priority of all jobs belonging to that user. For -a, condor_prio attempts to change
priority of all jobs in the queue.
The user must set a new priority with the -p option, or specify a priority adjustment.
The priority of a job can be any integer, with higher numbers corresponding to greater priority. For
adjustment of the current priority, +value increases the priority by the amount given with value. -value
decreases the priority by the amount given with value.
Only the owner of a job or the super user can change the priority.
The priority changed by condor_prio is only used when comparing to the priority jobs owned by the same
user and submitted from the same machine.
