With the multifactor plugin and QOS? :-) It's not so complicated. I would recommend you create 1-2 virtual machines and play a bit with the appropriate options (see below). > How do I define a ‘developers’ partition for development that allows user to > run temporary debug session with maximum walltime of 8:00:00 hours > (MaxTime=8:00:00).

What can fit your needs is: https://slurm.schedmd.com/qos.html https://slurm.schedmd.com/preempt.html Just deactivate the other factors for the moment: PriorityType=priority/multifactor PriorityWeightAge=0 PriorityWeightFairshare=0 PriorityWeightJobSize=0 PriorityWeightPartition=0 PriorityWeightQOS=10000 Do not shy away from the slurmdb setup (which is mandatory for this solution). It is worth the trouble. In the future you can also create extensive statistics. For example, which users regularly occupy CPUs/RAMs but do not use them to full capacity (which means waste of CPU time).
