Another option some sites use is to have a single slurm instance
managing multiple clusters (essentially treating it as a single larger
cluster, but with disjoint networks to avoid allocating jobs that span
clusters).
Quoting "Edsall, William (WJ)" <[email protected]>:
Hello list,
Could someone please describe the current grid capabilities within Slurm?
Can slurm act as a grid scheduler (like moab) and route jobs between
multiple Slurm clusters or do you need Moab+Slurm to achieve this?
Thanks
William
