Enable Curators to assign default worker tag at user-level

Currently, only users themselves are able to setup the default worker tag in their My Profile page. To ensure efficient management of worker nodes, Server Admins or Curators should be allowed to set the default worker tags of gallery users, preferably in bulk. This will help avoid workflows to be executed using the wrong worker node.

Agreed, and support this feature request.

Sever admin shall be able to set default Worker node for each user and user group so we can manage resource allocation in more organized way.

I'm honestly surprised this isn't a feature yet (would be delighted to hear that it is and I'm missing something). Some of our functions pay for additional capacity/dedicated workers. With no user level/user group level control, how can we ensure that unauthorized users aren't using their node without some form of automated job tag monitoring? I hope this functionality is added in the near future.

The current workaround seems to use server API and forcibly set default worker node for each user. I'll go with this for a while.

 

To be honest, I'd like to assign accessible worker tags to each user so as to avoid specifying wrong worker tag. This can be another feature request though.
