Maybe I'm asking the wrong question:

I have a bunch of resources that are busy all the time. I'd like to set
aside a small fraction of those resources for testing and other short jobs
such that jobs won't be scheduled on those resources unless the user
specifically asks for them. What is the best way to go about doing that
without disrupting existing jobs? I understand that this will reduce the
overall utilization of the cluster.
