Hello all,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’m trying to implement multiple “ephemeral” queues that allow general usage of project-specific hardware, but with preemption. One partition would wait a while before jobs are preempted, another where preemption occurs almost immediately, using
a very short time to emulate a short grace period. (Other partitions with higher priorities would have preemption disabled and usage restricted.) An attempt follows:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class=""><font face="Menlo" class="">PartitionName=scavenge Nodes=gaia02,saga03 Default=YES MaxTime=12:00:00 State=UP PriorityTier=1 PreemptMode=REQUEUE PreemptExemptTime=0-0:00:30</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="Menlo" class="">PartitionName=ephemeral Nodes=gaia01,saga0[1-2],saga04 MaxTime=12:00:00 State=UP PriorityTier=1 PreemptMode=REQUEUE PreemptExemptTime=0-1:00:00</font></div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">However, this isn’t allowed. I’ve set the following at the main configuration level:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class=""><font face="Menlo" class="">PreemptType=preempt/partition_prio</font></div>
<div class=""><font face="Menlo" class="">JobRequeue=1</font></div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Is there another way to get this behavior?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
