------------------------


Currently, jobs can be prioritized by user, project, department, or job.  This
enhancement requests the ability to also prioritize jobs by cluster queue.

Currently, when submitting jobs to cluster queues that subordinate each other,
priority 'bands' must be configured by project to enforce desired scheduling.
See:  http://gridengine.sunsource.net/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=9820&listName=users

However, this only allows jobs to execute with the correct priority in cluster
queues with certain project settings.  This effectively locks certain cluster
queues to certain projects, preventing some desirable configurations.  By
removing this restriction, jobs will be assigned a correct priority based on the
cluster queue they actually use.

WORKAROUND:
The state-of-the-art workaround for 6.0 is descibed under
http://gridengine.sunsource.net/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=12771
it bases on use of enforced per-queue urgency resources and should provide a
reasonable solution. The only change for end-users is that the per-queue urgency
resource attribute needs to be requested via -l queue_attr rather than -q queue.

Lowering priority to P4.
