It looks like RESOURCES=MEM:x sets the per task memory, but I want to set the amount of memory available to all jobs/tasks on a node. For example let's say the machine has 12GB of memory but I want to limit the amount of total usable memory to 10240MB. I set:
SRCFG[myres] FEATURES=mem12g RESOURCES=MEM:10240 but then a job with : #PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=4 #PBS -l mem=11000mb is able to run, because the scheduler calculates pmem = (11000/4) = 2750 which is less than 10240 . Now, I could set MEM:(10240/totalNumProcsOnmem12gNode) but I want a user to be able to request 1 task with mem=10240mb, i.e. a nodes=1:ppn=1 job that requests all the available memory on the node. Any way to do this?
