[slurm-dev] Implementing a single node policy with slurm

2016-02-09 Thread Baker D.J.
Hello, I'm starting to evaluate slurm and I'm coming from a torque/moab background. On our clusters we operate a single user policy. That is, a compute node can only be used by a single user - only they can put jobs on to that node once it's allocated. I would like to do the same thing in
