I think you have to change your Maui config back to DEDICATED.

With Maui configured as DEDICATED, it won't allow more than one process per node. So it assigns each new job to a free node, otherwise the job is enqueued. That's the solution for having just ONE job running on a node.

However, I wonder what would be more efficient: running two (or a small number of) processes concurrently on a single node (taking advantage of the time-sharing feature) or running one after another has finished.

To allow for this second option, Maui has to be configured with NODEACCESSPOLICY SHARED. But to get an efficient assignment policy, it is necessary to assign every new job to the node with the lowest load.
Does anyone know how can this be achieved with Maui/PBS?
