Thank you to list users,
in particular Bob Vickers sent me a perl script as users monitor,
Graham Allan and Tom Webster suggested me to use an automatic nice...
nice=19, isn't it?
I was thinking that cputime limit was similar that in VMS where my
interactive users had having
30 minutes of cputime so that they could start their long job in the
appropriate queue.
In unix systems situation is different,
so to apply a similar to cputime limit on my cluster my solution was:
use of a customized perl script to monitor interactive users that can't
exceed a cputime limit
and class scheduling to minimizecpu load of long jobs.
