Description of problem: The old condor problem: the documentation does not specify in what units STARTER_RLIMIT_AS is to be expressed. In this case it looks like Terabytes; highly unlikely I think... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): condor-7.9.1-0.1.fc17.2. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Put STARTER_RLIMIT_AS = 1 in the config file 2. Run a job 3. Grep through the StarterLog > grep virtual StarterLog > StarterLog.slot1_1:10/03/12 09:51:48 Setting job's virtual memory rlimit to 1048576 megabytes Actual results: > StarterLog.slot1_1:10/03/12 09:51:48 Setting job's virtual memory rlimit to 1048576 megabytes Expected results: Some consistent scheme for addressing amounts of memory all over condor. Like: all amounts are bytes, unless tagged with k, M, G of T. Additional info: When you specify 0, it reports 'Setting job's virtual memory rlimit to 0 megabytes' but that is obviously not true, as that would prevent any job from starting. Probably '0' means, 'leave it alone', but it should be reported as such then.
