custom limit on simultaneous jobs. #60

Closed kiranos closed 9 years ago

kiranos commented 9 years ago

I manged around 300 servers and it would be great to be able to run 25-50 screens simultaneously, now it seems to stop at around 13 or so. Is there a way to set another limit ?

Hi,

I'm not aware of any limits (due to apt-dater nor to screen). What does exactly happen? If the first 13 hosts running a session in which state did the other hosts linger?

Thanks, Thomas

They wont transfer to session category they stay at "updates pending" and when a few remote servers is "up to date" I can upgrade the previous servers which couldnt before.

This sounds strange... I'd just upgraded 80+ hosts simultaneously (read: 80 concurrent screen sessions).

kiranos commented 9 years ago

hm strange I dont know how to debug this though I've tried again and it just doesnt trigger more than 13 simulanious

I can now close this, it was an error on my part, I hosted the apt-dater server on an openvz container which has a limit on how many phy connections you can make.
