Dear slurm-user list, how would you implement a custom resource requirement? For example you have a group of nodes that has direct access to a large database so it would be best to run jobs regarding that database on those nodes.
How would you schedule a job (let's say using srun) to work on these nodes? Of course this would be interesting in a dynamic case, too (assuming that the database is downloaded to nodes during job execution), but for now I would be happy with a static solution (where it is okay to store a value before that says something like "hasDatabase=1" on nodes. So I am basically looking for custom requirements. Best regards, Xaver Stiensmeier
