Since each instance of the program is independent and you are using one

I too would be interested in some lightweight scripts. XDMOD in my
experience has been very intense in workload to install, maintain and
learn. It's great if one needs that level of interactivity, granularity and
detail, but for some "quick and dirty" summary in a small dept it's not
only overkill,
How about SchedMD itself? They are the ones doing most (if not all) of the
development, and they are great.
In my experience, the best options are either SchedMD or the vendor of your

What it might be possible (maybe) is submitting 5 core jobs and using some
pre-post scripts which immediately before the job start change the
requested number of cores to "however are currently available on the node
where it is scheduled to run".
In part, it depends on how it's been configured, but have you tried

config say it should be?
For example, my understanding is that changing cgroup.conf should be
followed by 'systemctl stop slurmd' on all compute nodes, then
'systemctl restart slurmctld' on the head node, then 'systemctl start

Are your licenses used only for the slurm cluster(s) or are they

I am a bit confused by remote licenses.
