Bas,
The patch looks good but I do not know if the resulting behavior is
globally desired. It is clear that if a user requests two procs per
node he should be 'charged' for them. However, if the scheduler
allocates resources to the job based on other admin-specified policies,
the correct action is less clear.
The correct solution may be to create a new policy, perhaps
'USAGELIMITTRACKINGPOLICY' with a value of either 'requested' or
'dedicated'. In the first, the user will have his usage limits
'charged' based on what he requested, regardless of how the scheduler or
other admin policies delivered resources, the second would charge based
on what was delivered, regardless of what was requested.
Would this approach cover your needs?
Dave
Dave,
Is this new feature USAGELIMITTRACKINGPOLICY in the new maui 3.2.6p14
or must i still try to use my patch for the correct behaviour of MAXPS
and NODEACCESSPOLICY SINGLEJOB with SMP machines?
Regards
