<h1>5.1.5 Manual Job Priority Adjustment</h1>
<p>Batch administrator's regularly find a need to adjust the calculated priority of a job to meet current needs. Current needs often are broken into two categories:</p>
<p>A) The need to run an admin test job as soon as possible<br>
B) The need to pacify an irate user</p>
<p>Under Maui, the <a href="commands/setspri.html">setspri</a> command can be used to handle these issues in one of two ways. This command allows the specification of either a relative priority adjustment, or the specification of a absolute priority. Using absolute priority specification, administrators can set a job priority which is guaranteed to be higher than any calculated value. Where Maui-calculated job priorities are in the range of 0 to 1 billion, system admin assigned absolute priorities start at 1 billion and go up. Issuing the command 'setspri <PRIO> <JOBID>', for example, will assign a priority of '1 billion + <PRIO>' to the job. Thus, 'setspri 5 job.1294' with set the priority of job 'job.1294' to 1000000005.</p>
