*Ack* you're correct. This was a recent, hastily added feature to control budgets on our system. I need to re-evaluate our approach. As you mentioned, the QOS GrpTRESMins limits appear to be the only NoDecay option. Managing them will be challenging on
our system because they'll be numerous...</div>

The behavior of the NoDecay QOS option is clearly described in docs. I'm not sure why I interpreted it so incorrectly!<br>

We're setting GrpTRESMins on the account association and have NoDecay QOS's for different user classes. All user associations with a GrpTRESMins-limited account are assigned a NoDecay QOS. I'm not sure if it's a better approach... but it's an option. </div>

<div class="x_gmail_quote">If I follow correctly, your GrpTRESMins usage on the accounts will still get decayed. From tests I ran here when running with a NoDecay QOS, the GrpTRESMins of the account still gets decayed, while the GrpTRESMins of the QOS doesn't.</div>
<div class="x_gmail_quote">So do you also have a GrpTRESMins on the QOS itself? And if so, why do you need both on the QOS and on the account? or am I missing something?</div>
