[Condor-users] Dynamic slot assignment not seeming to work

[Andrew Cunningham <andrewc@xxxxxxx>]

I have set up my various condor nodes (vanilla universe) as single slot, dynamic nodes

e.g.

MAX_SLOT_TYPES = 1

SLOT_TYPE_1 = 100%

NUM_SLOTS_TYPE_1 = 1

SLOT_TYPE_1_PARTITIONABLE = true

A  dual-core node with 8G of memory appears as  for example, and as expected

slot1@xxxxxxxxxxxx LINUX      X86_64 Unclaimed Idle     0.040  7713

I submit  4 jobs  (that can only run on this node) with this in the .sub file

request_cpus=1

request_memory=             2000

As expected initially one core and 2G of memory is taken from  slot1 and dynamically assigned as slot1.1

slot1.1@xxxxxxxxxx LINUX      X86_64 Claimed   Busy     0.000  2000

slot1@xxxxxxxxxxxx LINUX      X86_64 Unclaimed Idle     0.000  5713

Bit slot1.2 NEVER appears?? The jobs are executed but all run on slot1.1 "serially"

Why?
