+This is obsolete! Needs updates because priorities were simplified a while ago... + How priorities are propagated: There are two meanings here---propagation from parent nodes to child nodes, and from parent condor_dagmans to child nested dags. Priorities can be set using the -priority flag to condor_submit_dag or condor_dagman. This is the default priority for all nodes in this dagman. condor_dagman then looks at the PRIORITY value given for a job in the DAGman file; condor_dagman chooses the larger value as the priority of the job. This priority is appended to the condor_submit command by adding a '-append' flag, with associated attribute name and value, to the command. Thus, if condor_dagman assigns a priority to a node, it overrides any "priority = ..." in the submit file. If a nested dag node has a priority, condor_dagman appends that priority to the condor_dagman command line.
