SelectTypeParameters    = CR_CPU_MEMORY

From the doc, it seems that only CR_Memory implies OverSubscribe=YES :
All CR_s assume OverSubscribe=No or OverSubscribe=Force EXCEPT for CR_MEMORY 
which assumes OverSubscribe=Yes

When I do "scontrol list jobs", all jobs have OverSubscribe=OK (which is not 
Yes). Again from the docs it seems fine: "OK" otherwise (typically allocated 
dedicated CPUs)

Thanks again,

Stéphane

You might want to double check the config is acting as expected with:

scontrol show part | fgrep OverSubscribe

Also what does this say?

scontrol show config | fgrep SelectTypeParameters

I note that if you've got CR_Memory then:

                     CR_Memory
                            Memory  is  a  consumable  resource.   NOTE:  This
                            implies OverSubscribe=YES  or  OverSubscribe=FORCE
                            for  all  partitions.  Setting a value for DefMem‐
                            PerCPU is strongly recommended.

cheers,
Chris
