[HTCondor-users] scheduling behavior

[Marcus Ebert <mebert@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

We have a condor 8.6 installation with about 4000 jobs slots. Most of 
these are on 8-core VMs. When there are free slots available, the 
scheduling of idle jobs to a specific machine seems somehow random.
What we would like to have is that HTCondor fills up all slots on a 
machine before sending jobs to another (empty) machine.

Is there any config option that would allow to change the scheduling 
behavior in that way (something like a node allocation policy in Maui)?


Cheers,
 Marcus
