The last two weeks have been very productive debugging the simulator workbench (Thanks Maciej!!!)
There's a new sim_test_dir workbench with some patches and modifications: http://www.bsc.es/marenostrum-support-services/services/slurm-simulator Also, instructions for using a Ubuntu under a vitrtual machine for installing the simulator should make the process easier. There's a port for using the simulator with Slurm 2.5 that will be available next week. As there are several people trying to use the simulator for validating research, I wonder if it is time to create a database with trace files along with slurm configuration files taken from real production machines. I know this data is treated as a treasure by some centers but in my opinion, it could be more useful for researchers. Come on, this is open source world!!!
