[slurm-users] Priority wait

[Douglas Jacobsen]

Assuming you are using backfill, I suspect this is caused by using default
schedulerparameters, specifically the bf maxjobs or other similar limits
that would prevent jobs from being reviewed.  Setting debugflags=backfill
will help greatly in debugging these issues.

There are analogous parameters for the lightweight, non backfill scheduler.

Checking slurm.conf man page under schedulerparameters should be very
informative.
