[slurm-users] Accounting with OverSubscribe=YES and ExclusiveUser=YES

[Martijn Kruiten]

Hi,

We intend to oversubscribe our GPU nodes with OverSubscribe=YES,
ExclusiveUser=YES and GRES=GPU:<type>:<number> (and of course with
gres.conf and cgroup.conf properly configured). We're not sure yet how
to approach accounting with this setup. We want to charge users for the
whole node, whether they are running 1 or 4 jobs on it, because with
ExlusiveUser=YES all the resources of that node are occupied either way.
Of course we could do some post processing on the standard accounting
output, but is there a smarter way to approach this?

Regards,
Martijn Kruiten
