Hello,

if the Parameter JOBNODEMATCHPOLICY is not defined, Maui is able to pack jobs onto nodes with multiple processors:

   qsub -l nodes=8

will use only one node if there are nodes with 2x quadcore cpu's.

  qsub -l nodes=4:ppn=2

works well too: 4 nodes with 2 cores (=entries in PBS_NODEFILE).
This is fine for all ppn>1.

  qsub -l nodes=8:ppn=1

works not well in my point of view: One node with 8 entries in PBS_NODEFILE.

But I requested explicitely 8 nodes with ppn1. I would like to have a behaviour: packing if ppn not specified, no packing if ppn specified (for ppn=1 too).

Is it possible to get this?


Best regards,
Michael Schliephake
