[snip (27 lines)] We used to have dedicated partition with a couple of test/debug nodes. Now, however, we have moved to a single partition and have defined a QOS for short run-times which has an much larger priority weight than the standard QOS. This allows users to, say, run tests of large MPI jobs. The total number of jobs a user can have in the test/debug QOS is limited.
