Synopsis

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.
