Just wondering how I can rank by the number of cpus (cores) in a submit file? I suppose it's something like:
Rank=num_cpus
+RequiresWholeMachine=True
But whatever I put for "num_cpus" either doesn't seem to work (the jobs seem to idle instead of running) or it selects dual-core machines instead of the available quad-core machines.
I was using "rank=kflops" until I realised that this seems to be calculated per slot/core rather than total machine (which makes sense), however my software is multi-threaded so I use the whole machine.
Cheers,
Oliver
