Hello SLURM users, http://slurm.schedmd.com/sshare.html Raw Usage The number of cpu-seconds of all the jobs that charged the account by the user. This number will decay over time when PriorityDecayHalfLife is defined. I am getting different RAW Usage values for the same job every time it is executed. The Job am using is a CPU stress test for 1 minute.
It would be very useful to understand the formula for how this RAW Usage is calculated when we are using the plugin PriorityType=priority/multifactor. Snip of my slurm.conf file:- # Activate the Multi-factor Job Priority Plugin with decay PriorityType=priority/multifactor # apply no decay PriorityDecayHalfLife=0 PriorityCalcPeriod=1 PriorityUsageResetPeriod=MONTHLY # The larger the job, the greater its job size priority. PriorityFavorSmall=NO # The job's age factor reaches 1.0 after waiting in the # queue for 2 weeks. PriorityMaxAge=14-0 # This next group determines the weighting of each of the # components of the Multi-factor Job Priority Plugin. # The default value for each of the following is 1. PriorityWeightAge=0 PriorityWeightFairshare=100 PriorityWeightJobSize=0 PriorityWeightPartition=0 PriorityWeightQOS=0 # don't use the qos factor Thanks!
