◆ Any number can run from short queue, but only can use 200 MB of
memory in total
◆ Each other queue can run 30 jobs, each queue using up to 300 MB of
memory in total

license1 10 - normal
license1 - 200 short
license1 30 300 (all ~normal ~short)

All users in user group ugroup1 except user1 using queue1 and queue2 and
running jobs on hosts in host group hgroup1 are limited to 2 job slots per
processor on each host:
Begin Limit

QUEUES = queue1 queue2
USERS = ugroup1 ~user1

End Limit
user1 and user2 can use all queues and all hosts in the cluster with a limit of
20 MB of available memory:
Begin Limit
NAME = 20_MB_mem

MEM = 20
# Consumers:
USERS = user1 user2
End Limit
All users in user group ugroup1 can use queue1 and queue2 and run jobs on
any host in host group hgroup1 sharing 10 job slots:
