Subject: [Sphenix-software-l] time limit on interactive nodes

 

Hi folks,

we keep on having those runaway processes (root, emacs, vscode,...)
which then run forever at 100% cpu. We have now a daemon which sets the
ulimit of processes owned by the sphenix gid to 7200 seconds.

Lets see how this goes, let me know if this causes problems (e.g. this
time should be extended, but at some point condor with its much faster
nodes is objectively the better option)

Chris
