Dear all,

I have a problem with a large reservation in a few hours, ~1700
long-running jobs waiting to start afterwards and my short job (srun -t
1 hostname) with priority of 1 that would fill any gap...


"sdiag" always shows a value of about 100 as "Last depth cycle" for
backfilling. Does that mean that it only looks at the first 100 jobs?
I thought, bf_continue should take care of this, so that the next
backfilling test starts where the last has finished.

At the moment we have 15.08.6 running with:
SchedulerParameters=bf_interval=30,bf_max_job_test=2000,bf_window=7200,default_queue_depth=5000,bf_continue,sched_interval=120,defer
(Some values might be too high for production, but I was desperate to ge
my job running...)

Can anybody give me a hint on how to change this so that my low priority
job gets scheduled?

Thanks a lot,
Ulf

PS. As soon as I give this job a Nice=-200 it starts, but that is not
the way I want it :-)
