[Swift-user] Problem with app using maxTime

[Michael Wilde]

Lorenzo, for historical reasons which should be fixed (or will be hidden with the gensites utility), maxtime is specified in integer seconds, while maxwalltime needs to be specified in hh:mm:ss ala say PBS style.

My first guess here is that Swift interpreted maxwalltime to be hours instead of seconds.  so 600 secs should be specified as 00:10:00. Can you try that before we dig deeper into this one?

Thanks,

- Mike
