We have decided to support a maximum queue length of 48 hours on our
new equipment. We have found that long queues make kernel upgrades and
other WN maintenance very difficult - it can take easily 4 x queue
length to roll out non-critical upgrades on the cluster (this is a
month right now!).
What's the reason for supporting such a long wallclock queue for this VO?
Cheers
Graeme
