Hi Paul,
There could be multiple reasons why the job isn't running, from the user's QOS to your cluster hitting MaxJobCount. This page might help:

The output of the following command might help:
scontrol show job 465072

I have a job 465072 submitted to multiple partitions (rtx6000,rtx8000,pubgpu)
JOBID PARTITION PENDING PRIORITY TRES_ALLOC|REASON 4650727 rtx6000 47970 0.00367972 cpu=5,mem=400G,node=1,gpu=1|Priority 4650727 rtx8000 47970 0.00367972 cpu=5,mem=400G,node=1,gpu=1|Priority 4650727 pubgpu 47970 0.00367972 cpu=5,mem=400G,node=1,gpu=1|Priority 4646926 rtx6000 487048 0.00121987 cpu=10,mem=32G,node=1,gpu=1|Priority,Resources 4650186 rtx8000 56979 0.00000000 cpu=4,mem=10G,node=1,gpu=1|Priority,Resources
We see the two partitions rtx6000 and rtx8000 are full and two other jobs are at the top of the queue waiting to run on those. But partition pubgpu is NOT full and you can see here a node leo with resources to run the 4650727 job
HOST PARTITION CORES MEMORY GPUS leo pubgpu 48/ 64 12288/1030994 0/ 1 leo pubcpu 48/ 64 12288/1030994 0/ 1
The node leo is NOT part of the rtx6000 or rtx8000 partitions and there are no other pending jobs waiting on either the pubgpu or pubcpu partition that leo is part of
So why is 4650727 not running on the pubgpu partition?
