The simplest way is to reverse the nodelist in torque. You could also take a peek at the NODEALLOCATIONPOLICY parameter in maui. We have this
NODEALLOCATIONPOLICY PRIORITY NODECFG[DEFAULT] PRIORITYF=JOBCOUNT in our maui.cfg, which will pack jobs into the most loaded nodes keeping as many nodes free as possible. Might be possible to tweak this to your liking. r. On Monday 20. August 2012 12.23.54 Jim Kusznir wrote: > Hi all: > > I've recently updated my cluster and added some more nodes.
