Hi;
Did you restart slurmctld after changing
"PriorityType=priority/multifactor"?
Also your nice values are too small. It is not unix nice. Its range is
+/-2147483645, and it race with other priority factors at priority
factor formula. Look priority factor formula at
https://slurm.schedmd.com/priority_multifactor.html
Because of that, I think you should test with very high numbers for low
priority nice such as --nice 100000.

Hello Lyn, thanks for your reply.
I checked my configuration; the PriorityType was set to
"PriorityType=priority/basic" initially, so my tests refer to that
configuration.
After you post, I set it to "PriorityType=priority/multifactor" and
ran the tests again: the results are the same.
I was hoping to find a quick fix but it seems that I need to dig into
the docs and play with the "factors".
Matteo
