Hi,

Maybe someone here can clarify the concept of slots for me. I am very much confused by the definition "The maximum number of concurrently executing jobs allowed in the queue. Type is number, valid values are 0 to 9999999.".

Is the queue here cluster queue or queue instance? In my particular setting, the host group @allhosts contains 4 hosts and 28 CPU in total. Run 'qconf -sq all.q', giving the following by the default. The slots is 1 -- what does it really mean?

Does that mean 1 active job per queue instance? I have 4 queue instances and at the most I can have 4 jobs running concurrently? I am really not sure....



qname                 all.q
hostlist              @allhosts
seq_no                0
load_thresholds       np_load_avg=1.75
suspend_thresholds    NONE
nsuspend              1
suspend_interval      00:05:00
priority              0
min_cpu_interval      00:05:00
processors            UNDEFINED
qtype                 BATCH INTERACTIVE
ckpt_list             NONE
pe_list               make
rerun                 FALSE
slots                 1,[comp01=6],[comp02=6], [comp03=8],[comp04=8]
