Thank you Jesse.
I am using Enterprise SLES15SP6 as the OS. I have not introduced the cgroup functionality in my environment. I can think about it and will see if this solution works out. but is there any other way to use without Cgroup to achieve the same. Batch job requests are fine 2 jobs with each one GPU request works fine. in the case of mix( 1 batch job and other Interactive job) creating the problem.
Is there a way I can run a job and apply the exclusive way only on GPU resources?
Regards Navin.

Navin,
You can isolate GPUs per job if you have cgroups set up properly. What OS are you using? Newer OSes will support cgroupsv2 out of the box, but if necessary you can continue using v1, this workflow should be applicable for both.
Add ConstrainDevices=yes to your cgroup.conf
This is what the file looks like at my site:
/etc/slurm/cgroup.conf
CgroupMountpoint="/sys/fs/cgroup"
ConstrainCores=yes
ConstrainRAMSpace=yes
ConstrainSwapSpace=no
ConstrainDevices=yes
You can find the documentation here:
https://slurm.schedmd.com/cgroup.conf.html
If you want to share GPUs you can use CUDA MPS or MIG if your GPU supports it.

hi, facing an issue in my environment where the batch job and the interactive job use the same gpu. Each server has 2 gpu. When 2 batch jobs are running it works fine and use the 2 different gpu's. but if one batch job is running and another

hi,
facing an issue in my environment where the batch job and the interactive job use the same gpu.
Each server has 2 gpu. When 2 batch jobs are running it works fine and use the 2 different gpu's. but if one batch job is running and another job is submitted interactively then it uses the same GPU . Is there a way to avoid this?

Any suggestions on this.
