Hello. The Gang scheduling documentations says
> NOTE: Gang scheduling is performed independently for each partition, so configuring partitions with overlapping nodes and gang scheduling is generally not recommended. but I am not sure what will go wrong. Specifically I had in mind the following scheme: SelectType=select/cons_res SelectTypeParameters=CR_CPU PreemptType=preempt/partition_prio PreemptMode=schedule,gang NodeName=hpc[1-6] Sockets=4 CoresPerSocket=8 ThreadsPerCore=1 RealMemory=516075 PartitionName=high Nodes=hpc[1-6] Priority=2 Shared=FORCE:4 Default=No MaxTime=INFINITE State=UP PartitionName=normal Nodes=hpc[1-6] Priority=1 Shared=FORCE:4 Default=yes MaxTime=INFINITE State=UP What I want is basically gang scheduling with temporal complete suspension of jobs in the normal partition when the corresponding ressource is required by jobs from the high partition, until these jobs are done. Particularly I don't want to have more than 4 jobs running/gangin per CPU. Will this work as expected? Many thanks Alex
