I'm trying to set a maxjobs limit on a specific user in my cluster, but following the example in the sacctmgr man page I keep getting this error.


sacctmgr -v modify user where name=jrlang cluster=teton account=microbiome set maxjobs=30
sacctmgr: Accounting storage SLURMDBD plugin loaded with AuthInfo=(null)
Nothing modified

I then check the results of the change with:

sacctmgr show assoc where cluster=teton  account=microbiome tree

     teton  microbiome            jrlang                        1

But the max job setting has not been modified.

Can some point out the error of what I'm doing wrong?
