Job Limits Config Group

Configuring Job Limits restricts the number of concurrent jobs a user can run. Currently, this limitation is enforced only for Link Sessions.

Unlike Resource Requirements and Resource Limits config groups that define budgeted resources for scheduling and the limits of the resources allowed, Job Limits config groups restrict the number of jobs than can be run by a user.

Job Limit Behavior

When reaching the Job Limit, it will no longer be possible to submit more jobs. For example, if the Job Limit applies to Link Sessions, then a user will only be able to start at most the specified number of Link Session jobs.

Dynamic Configuration Updates

Jobs limits support dynamic updates without requiring service restarts:

  • New jobs: Updated limits take effect immediately for jobs submitted after configuration changes
  • Running jobs: Running jobs will continue to execute, and will be unaffected by updates to the limit

This allows administrators to adjust resource constraints without disrupting currently running workloads.
