I *think* you could define virtual nodes, one per socket. Then you could have a policy to prefer the least loaded node. I suspect this would rarely be a useful approach, particularly if it is not commonly used by the community (so help will be hard to find). Gareth Get Outlook for Android

Hi, to my very best knowledge MaxRSS does report aggregated memory consumption of all tasks but including all the shared libraries that the individual processes uses, even though a shared library is only loaded into memory once regardless of how many processes use it. So shared libraries do count

Hi Alan, unfortunately, process placement in Slurm is kind of black magic for sub-node jobs, i.e. jobs that allocate only a small number of CPUs of a node. I have recently raised a similar question here: https://support.schedmd.com/show_bug.cgi?id=19236 And the buttom line was, that to "reall

There is no way to do it in slurm. You have to do it in the mail program you are using to send mail. In our case we use postfix and we set smtp_generic_maps to accomplish this. -Paul Edmon- On 6/7/2024 3:33 PM, Vanhorn, Mike via slurm-users wrote: All, When the slurm daemon is sending out e

All, I have a very simple slurm cluster.  It's just a single system with 2 sockets and 16 cores in each socket.  I would like to be able to submit a simple task into this cluster, and to have the cpus assigned to that task allocated round robin across the two sockets.   Everything I try is putting
