Are there other jobs in the queue? If so then those higher priority jobs are likely waiting for resources before they run. Also the lower priority jobs probably can't fit in before the higher priority jobs run, thus they won't get backfilled. That's at least my guess.

Priority issue
Hello,
I have 1000 jobs in queue. The queue have 4 servers yet only two servers are with running jobs and all other jobs are pending with reason "priority". I think that only when current running jobs will finish, the other jobs will start running on all other server.

Any idea why are they waiting with priority now instead of start running on idle servers?

thanks
