Hi,

We have some common admin-tasks that we would like to implement on our instance, but before doing so, we were wondering what Galaxy has already baked it.

1. Is the Galaxy team planning to implement job_walltime for the local

runner? Currently, job_walltime is only implemented for the pbs runner--we believe that it would be a useful feature regardless of which runner one is using.

Hi Len,

I've implemented this in changeset bb365c782b64.

2. Is there a way to limit the number of active jobs a user can run at one

time?--perhaps a record in universe_wsgi.ini (e.g. max_jobs) could be helpful.

Yes, see the user_job_limit parameter in universe_wsgi.ini.

--nate

3. This is a bug report--but on our version of Galaxy, rev 949e4f5fa03a,

the sort-by-last login (on the manage users page), doesn't sort correctly. We are interested in deleting inactive users, and sorting by last-login is one way of doing this, but I was wondering if others out there have a better solution.

Thanks! Len Taing Cistrome Development Team
