deadlinecommand and limit groups

We submit some maya and max jobs using python scripts to build the deadlinecommand string. I cannot find any evidence that deadlinecommand supports the LimitGroups flag. Is this correct? I’m trying to avoid submitting by building job files, if possible.

Hello,

The LimitGroups flag is used to show limit names on the repository. Are you trying to assign a job to a limit group? Please do let me know, or you can type run the deadline command file at the command line for a list of all supported commands. Thanks.

Cheers,

Dwight

Yes, I am trying to assign a limit group to a commandline job. I’ve gone through the command switch reference and found no ‘assign limit group’ support.

Hello,

In order to set this particular option, you would use “-prop: Specify additional job properties in the form KEY=VALUE” where you would use it as such: “-prop LimitGroups=myLimit”

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
