Hello, I have a queue with 6 servers. When 4 of the servers are with heavy load, If I send new jobs to the other 2 servers which are free and under different partition and features, The jobs are still in pending mode (can take them 20 minutes to start running)
If I change their priority with "scontrol update" they start to run immediately. I am guessing it take Slurm a lot of time to reschedule all jobs when there is a heavy load so the new jobs are not check until I change their priority. Is there a way to tell Slurm to check all pending jobs every 2 minutes so if there are pending jobs on a free servers they will start running? More info: SchedulerType = sched/backfill SchedulerParameters = bf_continue,bf_max_job_test=300 Thank! Roy. *********************************************************************************************** Please consider the environment before printing this email !
