<p>Hi,</p>
<p>we have a Power9 partition with 44 processors having 4 cores each
totaling 176.</p>
<p>`scontrol show node <node>` shows <font size="3">"CoresPerSocket=22"
and "CPUTot=176" which confuses me. Especially as `whypending`
reports e.g. "172 cores free: 1"</font></p>
<p><font size="3">So what are "CPUs" and what are "Cores" to SLURM?
Why does it mix up those 2?<br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="3">Most importantly: Does this mean `--cpus-per-task`
can be as high as 176 on this node and `--mem-per-cpu` can be up
to the reported </font><font size="3"><font size="3">"RealMemory"/176?</font></font></p>
<p><font size="3"><font size="3">Thanks a lot,<br>
Alexander Grund<br>
</font></font></p>
