Sites to set the value of max_running_jobs to the number of available CPUs instead of 9999 for those cases when there is no limit. Progress will be monitored via the ROC managers' meeting. This is an ATLAS request.
Progress:
Read the notes of the Feb.28th meeting for the reasons of this request. Value 9999 is set to zero. Nick will check with Simone Campana whether Atlas is happy.

On 2005-05-02 meeting Simone reported that no more 9999 value is present but far too mamy zeroes, which means no jobs are accepted in that site. Gonzalo this is the default Info provider value. He suggested obliging the site to put a value. Simone will discuss it with the customers and the deployers.
