Hi Stephen,
Rather than separate queues for different hardware resources, I would
recommend using requestable complexes, unless you really need something
that only a queue can provide (suspend configuration, resubmit, etc.).
You can use urgency values on the complexes to ensure that jobs that depe

Thank you for the responses. It's given me some directions to explore.
At present, I have just the default queue on one cluster, and two queues -
one for the machines with GPUs, and one for machines without GPUs - on the
other cluster.

Good morning.
With the number of users on our clusters growing, it's becoming less
realistic to say "play fair 'cause you're not the only user of the cluster."
I'm looking for suggestions on setting up queues, both the "why" and "how,"
that will allow more of our users access to the cluster.
