I’m trying to use RQS to limit the total number of slots which users can take up on our cluster. This is slightly complicated by the hosts being split into two groups, one for batch jobs (@compute) and one for interactive jobs (@interactive). The idea would be that I’d limit the total slots taken up by a user on the @compute set, but not restrict @interactive.
The RQS rule I’m using is: { name per_user_slot_limit description "limit the number of slots per user" enabled TRUE limit users {*} hosts {@compute} to slots=16 } However I don’t think this is generating the right effect. I think what this is doing is saying that the limit of 16 slots applies on each of the individual members of @compute, and not on the sum of the slots across all of @compute. Can anyone suggest what the appropriate form of this rule would be to do what I need? Would be variant below do anything different? { name per_user_slot_limit description "limit the number of slots per user" enabled TRUE limit users {*} hosts {!@interactive} to slots=16 } Thanks Simon.
