Chris, it does not appear you can do this with currently with sbatch, I
don't easily see any reason it shouldn't work though. You can currently
alter it with the NumCPUs option of scontrol (it takes a range).
Perhaps this can be added in a future version.

Is there a --MaxCPUs?
Hi Slurm Experts,
Does Slurm support the user requesting a range of CPUs?
I know we can specify a range of nodes like --nodes=1-100
and one can specify --mincpus 2
and in a QOS one can specify MaxCPUsPerJob.
so,I guess one could create a bunch of QOSs which the user could
select (or assign them based on some other criteria in a job submit
plugin maybe).
Am I missing it or is there no way to specify a range of cpus as an
argument to sbatch?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
