I have maui client version 3.2.6p9.
I want to exclusively reserv resources for Jobs that have an "ADVRES" flag.
My problem is that jobs without an ADVRES flag can steal the reserved
resources.
At first I set the reservation. All nodes in the testcluster are reserved.
$ setres -u myid -x "BYNAME" -n j -s +0 -d 600 -r PROCS=1 TASKS==2
reservation 'j.0' created on 2 nodes (2 tasks)
Now I qsub two jobs without an ADVRES flag and they start running.
#!/bin/bash
#PBS -l walltime=10:00
sleep 160
When I later submit jobs with a reservation binding, they are unable to
start within the reservation window,
because the resources are used by these two jobs without a reservation
binding.
How to configure maui to make the job-reservation bindings work?
