Hi,

Is it possible to setup a one-time reservation to start at some point in the 
future.

We have a cluster in the University which a number of departments of access to. 
Occasionally a big project comes along that requires a fair proportion of the 
cluster (say 2/3) for 2 weeks but will be starting in a months time.


-          Obviously I can set up a reservation now but that means a good 
proportion of the cluster would remain idle until the project starts which is 
not good.

-          I could start the reservation when the project starts but then jobs 
that are already running (which could run for a number of weeks) are utilising 
nodes that areq required.

What I would like is to be able to setup a reservation in the future so that 
jobs can continue to use the cluster but only if they don't conflict with the 
reservation.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Jason
