Thank you for the quick response. I've setup three groups, @cpu1hosts, @cpu2hosts, and @cpu5hosts.
The @cpu1hosts consists of the node1* nodes, @cpu2hosts the node2* nodes, and @cpu5hosts the node5* nodes. In the default queue I have: hostlist @cpu1hosts @cpu2hosts @cpu5hosts seq_no 1,[@cpu1hosts=10],[@cpu2hosts=20],[@cpu5hosts=50] In addition to these changes, I had to do "qconf -msconf" and change "queue_sort_method" from "load" to "seqno". I believe this is now doing what we want. Thank you! :-) -Dj On 12/12/18 2:18 PM, Kamel Mazouzi wrote: > Hi, > > It's about seq_no parameter in queue definition. > > Assume that you have 2 groups of nodes: node10all and node50all > > Add this to your queue definition: > seq_no 1,[@node10all=50],[@node50all=100] > > New jobs will start running on nodes node50all > > Best regards > > > > > > > On Wed, Dec 12, 2018 at 8:05 PM Dj Merrill <s...@deej.net > <mailto:s...@deej.net>> wrote: > > I seem to recall reading about this in the past, but I can't > locate the > reference so I'm hoping someone might be able to help. > > We have some older nodes on our SGE system, starting at > node50.
