Navin, You can isolate GPUs per job if you have cgroups set up properly. What OS are you using? Newer OSes will support cgroupsv2 out of the box, but if necessary you can continue using v1, this workflow should be applicable for both.
Add ConstrainDevices=yes to your cgroup.conf This is what the file looks like at my site: /etc/slurm/cgroup.conf CgroupMountpoint="/sys/fs/cgroup" ConstrainCores=yes ConstrainRAMSpace=yes ConstrainSwapSpace=no ConstrainDevices=yes You can find the documentation here: https://slurm.schedmd.com/cgroup.conf.html If you want to share GPUs you can use CUDA MPS or MIG if your GPU supports it.
