[slurm-users] Slurm fair share priority not being applied

[Bruno Santos]

Hi everyone,

I have recently set-up slurm to use priority/multifactor giving fair
share the major weight.

Since the queue is up I have submitted about 1500 small jobs and just today
2 other users jumped on the queue with their first job. However, it seems
that slurm is not taking into account the fair share factor as they still
went to the bottom of the queue.

Looking at sprio it looks like the FAIRSHARE is still 0 for all of us.
Shouldn't they be getting a much higher for that?
JOBID     USER   PRIORITY        AGE  FAIRSHARE    JOBSIZE  PARTITION

7446    fkhan       1706         14          0        692       1000
  0           0

And the relevant slurm.conf looks like this:

> # JOB PRIORITY
> #PriorityFlags=
> PriorityType=priority/multifactor
> PriorityDecayHalfLife= 14-0
> #PriorityCalcPeriod=
> PriorityFavorSmall= YES
> PriorityMaxAge= 7-0
> #PriorityUsageResetPeriod=
> PriorityWeightAge= 1000
> PriorityWeightFairshare= 10000
> PriorityWeightJobSize= 1000
> PriorityWeightPartition= 1000
> PriorityWeightQOS=0
> FairShareDampeningFactor=5


Best,
Bruno
