In August 2025, the standard MaxTime on the Farm was reduced to 24 hours. If there is idle Farm capacity, longer jobs can be submitted using the longrun
QoS, e.g.
#SBATCH --qos=longrun #SBATCH --time=2-00:00:00 # Requesting a 2-day job
but they will be preempted by any jobs in the normal
QoS. The longrun
QoS currently allows jobs up to four days:
