this question looked interesting so I gave it a try. In a cluster with
Slurm I had no problem submitting a job which launched an orte-dvm
-report-uri ... and then use that file to launch jobs onto that virtual
machine via orte-submit. 

To be useful to us at this point, I should be able to start executing
jobs if there are cores available and just hold them in a queue if the
cores are already filled. At this point this is not happenning, and if I
try to submit a second job while the previous one has not finished, I
get a message like:

,----
| DVM ready
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------
| All nodes which are allocated for this job are already filled.
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------
`----

With the DVM, is it possible to keep these jobs in some sort of queue,
so that they will be executed when the cores get free?

Thanks,
