Hi everybody,

I've a question about how Maui derives the number of processors currently utilized. It seems that from our 32 processors only around 22 are active at the same time. All jobs in the queue are 1 processor jobs.

When we run diagnose -n we get the warning
WARNING: node 'node2' has more processors utilized than dedicated (4 > 3) for more than 1 node (full output below). If we login on that node and check the currently in-use resources with 'top', only 2 processes are running, both using 1 processor and around a quarter of the memory capacity.

We already tried to set the NODEAVAILABILITYPOLICY to DEDICATED:PROC and rebooted Maui, but that does not solve the problem. We also searched for the warning in this mailinglist, but didn't find an answer so far. Can somebody help us.

Kind regards,
