Hi I'm wondering,, how does slurm arrange nodes in squeue nodelist column ? are the nodes just arranged in alphabetical order (based on nodename) from left to right or is it priority order ?
The following is the output of squeue command : JOBID PARTITION NAME USER ST TIME NODES NODELIST(REASON) 1194 part1 md50n2_0 necis R 30:26 2 compute-node,head-node in nodelist column, compute-node always appeared first before head-node. I have tried to set weight to each node in slurm.conf, however the nodes sequence still unchanged. It seems that the first node in nodelist is responsible to compute MPI Rank 0, and it affects my experiment result. I want MPI rank 0 is computed in head-node, because that node is a submit node. Thank you in advance, Husen
