Question

Is there a way to configure the scheduler or flyte in some way to only allow at most N instances of a certain workflow task to run at the same time in a namespace

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

Yup

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

You don t have to configure scheduler

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

You can do that per workflow or per project call max parallelism

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

If you want to limit core use resource quotas

Laura Lin · Answer

mostly lets say I have a workflow making unsafe updates to a database and I just want to ensure that we only ever have one of these workflows running at a time

Laura Lin · Answer

`Controls the maximum number of task nodes that can be run in parallel for the entire workflow This is useful to achieve fairness ` this sounds like its for the tasks in the workflow Or can it also control how many parallel instances of the workflow itself

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

That is not supported today

Laura Lin · Answer

ah ok thanks

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

But this is great we would probably add this as a feature

Ketan (kumare3) · Answer

As Flyte has resource manager

Laura Lin · Answer
