<div>Yes, Boolean constraints do work with minimal configuration. We run mostly MPI jobs on our cluster and want our jobs to run on a single processor type. We assign the processor types as a feature and then the sbatch requests —constraint=[wes|san|has|bro]
to run on whatever processor type is free. Works great. </div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Can you also request a different job layout for each processor type?

<div>Hello,<br>
<br>
</div>
We currently use an in-house customized version of Torque and an in-house scheduler. I'm now considering Slurm instead. We have a feature in our scheduler where by users can submit jobs with multiple-prioritized job specifications (constraints). For example,
a job can request 4 nodes of type X with 16 cores per node OR 2 nodes of type Y with 20 cores per node. The scheduler will prefer the first job spec but may use the second job spec if the first can not be satisfied within certain QoS limits.<br>
<br>
</div>
I saw some ability to use boolean constraints in the docs for Slurm, but would like to know if this behavior is possible out of the box.<br>
<br>
</div>
Thanks,<br>
