Hi all; I setup a Slurm based cluster to study scheduling algorithms. This cluster has 10 nodes and 2 CPUs per node. I compiled Slurm with the "--enable-multiple-slurmd" option and I configured it to act as a 3600 node cluster with 16 CPUs per node. Since I am only submitting sleep jobs, this configuration seems to work just fine.
However, I am getting a very odd behaviour when using suspend-resume. When suspending low priority jobs to run a higher priority job, Slurm is suspending roughly twice the number of CPUs necessary to run this high priority job. Does anyone have any idea why is this happening? Thank you very much. Best regards, Claudio
