Hi, on our SGE-8.1.6 cluster we have implemented fair-share usage w/ functional policy configuration. As the only limitation we allow to dispatch a maximum of four jobs concurrently due to license restrictions of our tool.
Fair-share works perfectly fine as long as there are only 4 users submitting jobs. It looks like this policy fails, as soon as there are more than 4 users submitting jobs. Any new user's jobs (e.g. 5th user's job) is put into waiting until all prior submitted jobs of one of the first four users are completely finished. Any help to make fair-share working for more than 4 users is greatly appreciated. I'm attaching scheduler config settings. Please let me know, if you need more details.
