Discussion:
Use actual load (by slurm jobs or direct jobs) to schedule?

Hi,

Is it possible to have slurm check the actual load on the node (CPU load
or free memory) and schedule jobs based on that information? I have a
few nodes that are used directly (without slurm) but I want slurm to
schedule jobs to them anyhow, if they are idle enough and have enough
free memory. This would mean that if a node is fully loaded (by a direct
job OR a slurm job) slurm should set the node as busy.

I want to use this to introduce slurm to my users, as a transition phase
of some sorts.

thanks

Gerben
